An instrumental for the analysis of trace hydrocarbons in air, or in the products of combustion uses a flame ionization detector. The flame in this device is fueled by mixture of 40% (vol.) hydrogen and 60%(vol)helium. The fuel mixture is contrained in a 42.8-liter tank at 1500psig and 298K. The atmospheric pressure is 1000kPa. What is the partial pressure of each constituent in the tank and the total mass of the mixture. Assume Ideal gas behavior for the mixture.
