Question

Four samples of gas each exert 675 mm Hg in separate 3.5 L containers. What pressure will they exert if they are all placed in a single 3.5 L container?
a.169 mm Hg

b.675 mm Hg

c.2.36 x 103

d. 2.70 x 103

Answer 1

The pressure that  will  be   exerted if  four sample  of gas are placed in a single  3.5 container  is calculated as below

if  each gas occupies 675  mmhg

what about  4 gases in the sample
by cross  multiplication

= 675 mm hg x 4/1 = 2.7  x10^3mmhg (answer D)
