And the total pressure exerted will just be the scalar sum of all the partial pressures. Letxbe the partial pressure of C. Hence- 200 mm of Hg + 180 mm of Hg + x =1 atm x = 1 atm-380 mm of Hg But 1atm = 760 mm of Hg. Therefore,x = 760-380=380 mm of Hg. Moreover, Partial Pressure Mole fraction × Total Pressure Hence- 380 mm of Hg= X of A × 760 mm of Hg. X of C = 1/2 =0.5 The mole fraction of C is0.5 |
