A container encloses 2 mol of an ideal gas that has molar mass M₁ and 0.5 mol of a second ideal gas that has molar mass M2 = 3M₁. What fraction of the total pressure on the container wall is attributable to the second gas? Note: The kinetic theory explanation of pressure leads to the experimentally discovered law of partial pressures for a mixture of gases that do not react chemically: The total pressure exerted by the mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that the several gases would exert separately if each were to occupy the vessel alone.
A cylinder contains 0.250 mol of carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas at a temperature of 27.0°C. The cylinder is provided with a frictionless piston, which maintains a constant pressure of 1.00 atm on the gas.

For a planet to have an atmosphere, gravity must be sufficient to keep the gas from escaping The escape speed a particle needs to escape the earth's gravitational attraction is 1.1 x 10 m/s. The motion of projectiles never depends on mass, so this escape speed applies equally to rockets and to molecules in the earth's upper atmosphere.
