A mixture of gases in a cyliner at `760 mm` pressure contains `65 %` nitrogen, `15%` oxygen, and `20%` carbon dioxide by volume. What is the partial pressure of each gas in `mm`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the partial pressures of nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide in a mixture of gases, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Total Pressure**: The total pressure of the gas mixture is given as \( P_{total} = 760 \, \text{mm} \). 2. **Identify the Percentages by Volume**: ...
