Concept Introduction:
Dalton’s law of partial pressure:
According to this law, the total pressure exerted by each gas in a mixture is equal to the sum of the individual partial pressure of the gases.
Partial pressure: It is the pressure of each gas in a mixture of gases.
Mole fraction: Quantity which defines the number of moles of a substance in a mixture divided by the total number of moles of all substances present.
Partial pressure of a gas in the mixture of gases is the product of mole fraction of the gas and the total pressure.

- You have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2. (a) In which cylinder is the pressure greater at 25 C? (b) Which cylinder contains the greater number of molecules?arrow_forwardA typical barometric pressure in Redding. California, is about 750 mm Hg. Calculate this pressure in atm and kPa.arrow_forwardXenon and fluorine will react to form binary compounds when a mixture of these two gases is heated to 400C in a nickel reaction vessel. A 100.0-mL nickel container is filled with xenon and fluorine, giving partial pressures of 1.24 atm and 10.10 atm, respectively, at a temperature of 25C. The reaction vessel is heated to 400C to cause a reaction to occur and then cooled to a temperature at which F2 is a gas and the xenon fluoride compound produced is a nonvolatile solid. The remaining F2 gas is transferred to another 100.0-mL nickel container, where the pressure of F2 at 25C is 7.62 atm. Assuming all of the xenon has reacted, what is the formula of the product?arrow_forward
