a mixture of oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and methane gases have a total pressure of 1.3 ATM. if the partial pressure of hydrogen is 2.4 PSI, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is 110 torr can the partial pressure of methane is 0.22 ATM, how many mmhg does oxygen exert?

Solutions

Expert Solution

According to Dalton's law total pressure of gas is equal to sum of partial pressure exerted by each gas

Ptotal = Poxygen + Phydrogen + Pcabon dioxide + Pmethane

Ptotal =

1.3atm to mmHg

1 atm = 760 mmHg

        = 1.3atm/1atm x 760mmHg = 987.999mmHg

PH2 =

2.4 PSI to mmHg

2.4PSI/1PSI x 51.714mmHg = 124.115 mmHg

PCO2 =

110 torr to mmHg

109.999 mmHg

PCH4 =

0.22atm to mmHg

0.22atm/1atm x 760 mmHg = 167.199mmHg

Poxygen = Ptotal – (PH2 + PCO2 + PCH4)

              = 987.999 – (124.115 + 109.999 +167.199)

= 987.999 - 401.313

= 586.686 mmHg

Oxygen exert 586.686 mmHg
