A gas mixture contains 6 moles of H2 and 2 moles of N2. If the total pressure of the gaseous mixture is 4 kgf/cm2; then the partial pressure of N2 in the mixture will be _____________ kgf/cm2 ?

Correct answer: A. 1

  • A. 1
  • B. 2
  • C. 4
  • D. 8

Explanation

The mole fraction of nitrogen is 2/(6+2) = 0.25. Dalton’s law then gives its partial pressure as 0.25 × 4 = 1 kgf/cm².
