Question

Calculate delta g for the reaction if the partial pressures of the initial mixture are pcl5 = .0029 atm, pcl3 = .27 atm, and pcl2 = .40 atm

Answer 1

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of the gases involved in the reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dalton's law of partial pressures states that the total pressure is equal to the sum of the partial pressures.

We simply add the two pressures together:

Ptot = 2.33 atm + 0.77 atm = 3.10 atm
