Answer : The formic acid pressure is, 99 torr

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

                            HCOOH(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2(g)

Initial pressure        a                   0              0

At time 't'                (a-x)                 x              x

According to the Dalton's law,

P_{Total}=P_{HCOOH}+P_{CO_2}+P_{H_2}

P_{Total}=(a-x)+x+x=a+x    .........(1)

As we are given that:

Initial pressure = a = 220 torr

P_{Total}=319torr

Now put the value of 'a' in equation 1, we get:

P_{Total}=a+x

319torr=220torr+x

x=99torr

Thus, the formic acid pressure is, 99 torr
