Question

Gas Law- please help!!!

Answer 1

The pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.

What is partial pressure?

The pressure exerted by the individual gas is known as partial pressure.

The partial pressure is given as

$\rm P_{Total} = P_1 + P_2 + ...$

In a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen, 40.0% of the gas pressure is exerted by oxygen.

If the total pressure is 115 mmHg.

The total pressure in atm will be

P = 115 mmHg

P = 0.15132 atm

We have

$\rm P_T \ \ \ = P_{O_2} + P_{CO_2}\\\\0.15132 \ \ = 0.4 \times 0.15132 +P_{CO_2}\\\\ P_{CO_2} = 0.09079\ atm$

Then the pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.
