A gas mixture of Ne and Ar has a total pressure of 4.00 atm and contains 16.0 mol of gas. If the partial pressure of Ne is 2.75

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

5 moles of Argon is present in the mixture.

Explanation:

Total pressure of the gaseous mixture = 4 atm

Total number of moles = 16

Partial pressure of Ne = 2.75 atm

By Dalton's law of partial pressure, the total pressure of gaseous mixture is the sum of partial pressures of individual gases which are non-reactive.

Hence:

$P_{total}=P_{Ar}+P_{Ne}\\4=P_{Ar}+2.75\\P_{Ar}=1.25\ atm$

Also :

Partial pressure = mole fraction*total pressure

$P_{Ar}=X_{Ar}P_{total}$

$X_{Ar}=\frac{1.25}{4}=0.3125$

$\frac{n_{Ar}}{n_{total}}=0.3125\\n_{Ar}=5$

∴Number of moles of Argon = 5
