Dalton's law of partial pressures states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of its components: \text {P}_{\text{Total}} = \text P_{\text {gas 1}} + \text P_{\text {gas 2}} + \text P_{\text {gas 3}} ...P Total =P gas 1 +P gas 2 +P gas 3 ...
In the electrolytic cell, depending on the polarity of the battery, either a more vigorous reaction (though the same as the voltaic cell) would occur, or the reverse would.
Explanation: All gases are diatomic i.e they are covalently bonded to another atom of the same element in order to attain stability. O atom is usually unstable because of it's incompletely filled outermost shell.
