13. Gas A and gas B (both unreactive) are allowed to mix. The total pressure is found to be 3.50 atm. f gas B
was measured initially at 1.25 atm, what is the partial pressure of gas A?
a 4.75 atm
b. -2.25 atm
c.) 2.25 atm
d 1.25 atm


Sagot :

C sorry if it’s wrong

The partial pressure inside a gas mixture shall consist of the notional pressure of that constituent gas if the whole quantity of its starting material alone was occupied at the same temperature. The partial gas pressure is a measure of thermodynamic action in the particles of a gas, and the calculation can be defined as follows:

Given:

[tex]\to \bold{ P_T=3.50 \ atm}\\\\\to \bold{P_B=1.25 \ atm}\\\\[/tex]

To find:

partial pressure=?

Solution:

Using formula: [tex]\bold{P_T=P_A+P_B}\\\\[/tex]

                   [tex]\to \bold{3.50=P_A+1.25}\\\\\to \bold{P_A=3.50-1.25}\\\\\to \bold{P_A=2.25}\\\\[/tex]

As we know that pressure is not negative and as [tex]\bold{P_T}[/tex] is total pressure so, it has a large value, and[tex]\bold{ P_A , P_B}[/tex] is partial.

Therefore, the final answer is "Option C".
