Chapter 10, Problem 10.80SP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Partial pressure for the gases in air need to be calculated.

Introduction:

Partial pressure: In a mixture, the pressure bared by an individual gas is known as partial pressure.

Given:

Percentage Volume of the gases present in the air is given below,

$N_2$    78.08

$O_2$   20.95

$Ar$    0.93

$C{O}_2$     0.038

$Ne$
$1.82\times {10}^{-3}$

$He$
$5.24\times {10}^{-4}$

$C{H}_4$
$1.7\times {10}^{-4}$

$Kr$
$1.14\times {10}^{-4}$

  $P_{Total}={(STP)}_{pressue}=1atm$
