Students are expected to apply their knowledge of gas laws, specifically the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), to determine the unknown partial pressure of helium. The total pressure and conditions of the gas mixture are given to assist in the completion of this task.

We can use ideal gas equation to calculate the partial pressure of each gas. The ideal gas equation…

A mixture of carbon dioxide and helium gases, in a 7.15 L flask at 50 °C, contains 13.4 grams of carbon dioxide and 0.327 grams of helium. The partial pressure of helium in the flask is atm and the total pressure in the flask is atm.
