Its been awhile since I've dabbled in chemistry, but i do know that A isnt the answer because the question says solution, not mixture. This looks somewhat like a trick question, it says individual components, so the answer would be C. This is because the individual components do react to form a compound. B and D would be true if it didnt say individual components, so the question is basically focusing on only one ingredient, not the whole solution. Answer: C
This
can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the
total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial
pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In
order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations
are as follows:<span>
<span>P = 3.00 atm + 1.80 atm + 0.29 atm + 0.18 atm + 0.10 atm</span></span>
<span><span>P = 5.37 atm</span></span>
Because potassium is a gas that can evolve
