A mixture of `N_2` and Ar gases in a cylinder contains 7g of `N_2` & 8 g of Ar. If the total pressure of the mixture of the gases in the cylinder is 27bar, the partial pressure of `N_2` is:

A

12 bar

B

15 bar

C

18 bar

D

9 bar

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The number of moles of `N_2` and Ar are :
`n_(N_2) = ("given mass")/("Molar mass")`
`= (7g)/(28 g)`
`= 0.25 mol`
`M_(Ar)= 8/40`
`= 0.20 mol`
Now, Applying Dalton.s law of partial pressure
Partial pressure of `N_2` = (mole fractin of `N_2`) `xx` Total pressure
`P_(N_2) = ((0.25)/((0.20 + 0.25))) xx 27` bar
`= (0.25)/(0.45) xx 27` bar
`P_(N_2) = 15 ` bar

A neon (Ne) -dioxygen (O_(2)) mixture contains 160 g neon and 96 g dioxygen . If the pressure of the mixture of gases in the container is 30 bar, calculate the partial pressure of neon and dioxygen in the mixture. Strategy : Calculate the number of moles of each component to get their mole fractions. Then use Eq.(5.24) to determine the partial pressure of any component and substract it from the total pressure to find the partial pressure of the component .

In a closed cylinder there are 60g Ne and 64 g O_(2). if pressure of mixture of gases in cylinder is 30 bar then partial pressure of O _(2) in this cylinder will be-
