The pressure of a 1:4 mixture of dihydrogen and dioxygen enclosed in a vessel is one atmosphere. What would be the partial pressure of dioxygen?
MOLE FRACTION= ![]()
Let the moles of dihydrogen=1 and dioxygen=4
Mole fraction of O2=![]()
= ![]()
Partial pressure= mole fraction Х Total pressure
=
×1
= 0.8atm
= 0.8×105Nm-2
= 8×104Nm-2
