In a balloon of total pressure 6 atm there is a gaseous composition of 44 grams of carbon dioxide 16 grams of by oxygen and 7 grams of nitrogen, what is the ratio of nitrogen partial pressure do the total pressure in the balloon?(a) 0.25(b) 0.5(c) 0.75(d) 1The question was posed to me during an interview for a job.The above asked question is from States of Matter in portion States of Matter of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

Right option is (a) 0.25

Explanation: The partial PRESSURE of a gas is given by the mole fraction of the gas X the TOTAL pressure, so the RATIO of the partial pressure to the total pressure is the mole fraction of nitrogen is 7/14 divided by 44/44 + 16/32 2 + 7/14 = 0.25.
