Question

Four gases were combined in a gas cylinder with these partial pressures: 3.5 atm N2, 2.8 atm O2, 0.25 atm At, and 0.15 atm He

Answer 1

Total pressure in container = 6.7 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

N₂ = 3.5 atm

O₂ = 2.8 atm

At = 0.25 atm

He = 0.15 atm

Find:

Total pressure in container

Computation:

Total pressure in container = N₂ + O₂ + At + He

Total pressure in container = 3.5 + 2.8 + 0.25 + 0.15

Total pressure in container = 6.7 atm
