Question

Five gases combined in a gas cylinder have the following partial pressures: 3.00 atm (N2), 1.80 atm (O2), 0.29 atm (Ar), 0.18 atm (He), and 0.10 atm (H). What is the total pressure that is exerted by the gases? Use . 5.08 atm 5.19 atm 5.27 atm 5.37 atm

Answer 1

Explanation:

all gases are inert so total pressure would be summation of all partial pressures

it would be 3 + 1.8 + 0.29 + 0.18 + 0.10

which is equal to 5.37 atm

Answer 2

The total pressure exerted by gases=5.37 atm

Explanation:

Partial pressure of nitrogen=3.00 atm

Partial pressure of oxygen=1.80 atm

Partial pressure of argon=0.29 atm

Partial pressure of helium=0.18 atm

Partial pressure of hydrogen=0.10 atm

Dalton's partial pressures law:It states that in a mixture of non- reacting gases, total pressure exerted by gas  is equal to sum of individual of the partial pressures of individual gases.

$Total pressure=P=P_1+P_2+P_2+....+P_n$

Now, total pressure exerted by gases

$P=3+1.8+0.29+0.18+0.1=5.37 atm$

Hence, total pressure exerted by gases=5.37 atm
