Question

Conceptual Connection 10.5 Enhanced with Feedback
A gas mixture contains an equal number of moles of He and Ne. The total pressure of the mixture is 6.0 atm.
Part A
What are the partial pressures of He and Ne?
O PHe = 4.0 atm; PNe
2.0 atm
PHe = 3.0 atm; PNe = 3.0 atm
O PHe = 2.0 atm; PNe
4.0 atm

Expert Solution

Step 1

Any gas in a mixture seems to have a partial pressure proportionate to their mole fraction. The partial pressure of a gas in a gas mixture is product of the overall pressure and the mole fraction of particular gas.

$P_{i} = P_{T} \times χ_{i}$
