Air inside a closed container is saturated with water vapour. The air pressure is $p$ and the saturated vapour pressure of water is $\bar{p}$. If the mixture is compressed to one half of its volume by maintaining temperature constant,the pressure becomes

  • A
    $2(p+\bar{p})$
  • B
    $2p+\bar{p}$
  • C
    $(p+\bar{p}) / 2$
  • D
    $p+2\bar{p}$

$A$ horizontal uniform glass tube of $100 \, cm$ length, sealed at both ends, contains a $10 \, cm$ mercury column in the middle. The temperature and pressure of the air on either side of the mercury column are $81^{\circ} C$ and $76 \, cm$ of mercury, respectively. If the air column at one end is kept at $0^{\circ} C$ and the other end at $273^{\circ} C$, the pressure of the air which is at $0^{\circ} C$ is (in $cm$ of $Hg$):
