I don't understand how to find the volume in this problem..
A flask containing 63.2 mL of neon gas was collected over water at 21C and 788 mm Hg. What is this volume of gas at STP? (WVP at 21C = 18.6 mm Hg)

1$\begingroup$ Hint: what do you know about the partial pressures of the gases? What is contributing to the 788 mmHg? $\endgroup$ – jonsca♦ Dec 9 '12 at 10:15

1$\begingroup$ If you edit the question to reflect your initial efforts, you can flag it to be reopened. As of now, you have just copied your homework problem in as a question. More ideal would be if you could pinpoint the areas that are troubling you and ask a more conceptual question. $\endgroup$ – jonsca♦ Dec 10 '12 at 4:39
