Worked Solution
Step 1: Identify the fixed volumes. The container is 300 cm³ and water (liquid) has a fixed volume of 100 cm³.
Step [2-9]: Calculate remaining space for air: 300 cm³ - 100 cm³ = 200 cm³.
Step [2-9]: Since air is a gas and has no fixed volume, it will compress to fill the available space of 200 cm³.
Correct answer: 200 cm³
