Answer to Question #68917 in General Chemistry for Libby

Question

When a container is filled with 3.00 mol of H2, 2.00 mol of O2, and 1.00 mol of N2, the pressure in the container is 465 kpa. the partial pressure of O2 is...

Answer 1

Solution:
x(O2)=2/(3+2+1)=0.333
p(O2)=P*x(O¬¬2)=465*0.333=155 (kpa)
Answer: The partial pressure of O2 is 155 kpa
