ANSWER: c. partial pressure



Q2. A mixture of ideal gases of volume V at temperature T, contains n1 moles of gas A, n2 moles of gas B and n3 moles of gas C. What is a correct formula for partial pressure (pB) of gas B?

a. (pB) = ((1/3)(n1+n2+n3) RT) / V
b.(pB) = ((n1 + n3) RT) / V
c. (pB) = (n2 RT) / V
d. (pB) = (n2(n1 + n3) RT) / V

View Answer / Hide Answer

ANSWER: c. (pB) = (n2 RT) / V



Q3. Dalton's law of partial pressure states that

b. the total pressure of a mixture of ideal gases is equal to the partial pressure of any individual gas in the mixture

c. the total pressure of a mixture of ideal gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of individual gases

d. none of the above

ANSWER: c. the total pressure of a mixture of ideal gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of individual gases



Q4. What is the partial volume of a gas in a mixture?

a. volume occupied by a single gas alone of a mixture at the same temperature and pressure of the mixture

b. total volume of the mixture at a certain pressure and temperature divided number of gases mixed in the mixture

c. both a. and b.

d. none of the above
