Question

how can u say that air is mixture of gases​

Answer 1

Answer:

Air is a mixture of gases, 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen with traces of water vapor, carbon dioxide, argon, and various other components. We usually model air as a uniform (no variation or fluctuation) gas with properties that are averaged from all the individual components. Any gas has certain properties that we can detect with our senses. The values and relations of the properties define the state of the gas.

The values and relations of the properties define the state of the gas.On this slide you will find typical values of the properties of air at sea level static conditions for a standard day. We are all aware that pressure and temperature of the air depend on your location on the earth and the season of the year. And while it is hotter in some seasons than others, pressure and temperature change day to day, hour to hour, sometimes even minute to minute during severe weather. The values presented on the slide are simply average values used by engineers to design machines. That's why they are called standard values. We also know that all of the state-of-the-gas variables will change with altitude, which is why the typical values are given at sea level, static conditions. Because the gravity of the Earth holds the atmosphere to the surface, as altitude increases, air density, pressure, and temperature (for lower altitudes) decrease. At the edge of space, the density is almost zero. The variation of the air from the standard can be very important since it affects flow parameters like the speed of sound.

hope this will help!♡
