The total Pressure equals the sum of all pressures contained 

<span>Since total pressure and the pressure of nitrogen and oxygen is given, finding the pressure of carbon dioxide is given by: </span>

<span>Pressure of Carbon dioxide = 42.9- 6.6- 23.0 </span>
<span>=13.3kPa </span>

Answer : The partial pressure of the carbon dioxide gas is, 13.3 kPa

Solution :

According to the Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure of an ideal gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases in the mixture.

P_T=P_{O_2}+P_{N_2}+P_{CO_2}

where,

P_T = total pressure = 42.9 kPa

P_{O_2} = partial pressure of oxygen gas = 6.6 kPa

P_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen gas = 23.0 kPa

P_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas.

42.9=6.6+23.0+P_{CO_2}

P_{CO_2}=13.3kPa

Therefore, the partial pressure of the carbon dioxide gas is, 13.3 kPa
