Question

[05.04]a mixture of two gases exerts a total pressure of 1.22 atm. if the partial pressure of one of the gases is 0.58 atm, what is the partial pressure of the other gas in the mixture? 0.48 atm 0.64 atm 0.71 atm 2.1 atm

Answer 1

total gas pressure= pressure of 1st gas+pressure of 2nd gas. ⇒1.22atm=0.58atm+unknown atm

1.22atm-0.58atm=unknown atm

unknown atm=0.64atm

Answer 2

The answer is 0.64 atm I just took the exam.
