1. What does Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures state?
The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the product of the partial pressures of the individual gases.
The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.
The partial pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its mole fraction.
Gases in a mixture react to form new compounds.
2. A container holds a mixture of oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2) gases. If the partial pressure of O2 is 0.4 atm and the partial pressure of N2 is 0.6 atm, what is the total pressure of the gas mixture?
0.2 atm
0.4 atm
0.6 atm
1.0 atm
3. Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures is applicable to mixtures of gases.
4. The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture is the pressure that gas would exert if it were in the container.
5. A gas mixture contains 3.0 moles of oxygen, 2.0 moles of nitrogen, and 5.0 moles of carbon dioxide. If the total pressure of the mixture is 2.5 atm, what is the partial pressure of nitrogen?
6. The volume occupied by each gas in a mixture is the same as the total volume of the container.
