Question

PROBLEM 26. A gaseous mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen
contained in a 10-litre flask at 298 K exerted a pressure of 6.0
atm. If the quantity of carbon dioxide is 0.40 mole, find out the
partial pressure of each gas.​

Answer 1

Answer:

P co2=0.98

P o2=5

Explanation:

pv=nRT

n=pv/RT

n=6*10/0.0831*298

total mole=2.42

02=total mole-co2=2.02moles

co2=0.4 mole

• partal p of co2=(0.4/2.42)*6=>0.9 atm(aprox)
• partial p of o2=(2.02/2.42)*6=>5 atm(aprox)
