Understanding +4 | -1
Three containers of the same volume contain three different gases. The masses of the molecules are m1,m2{m_1},{m_2} and m3{m_3} and the number of molecules in their respective containers are N1,N2{N_1},{N_2} and N3.{N_3}. The gas pressure in the containers are P1,P2{P_1},{P_2} and P3{P_3} respectively. All the gases are now mixed and put in one of the containers. The pressure P of mixture will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
P=P1+P2+P3P = {P_1} + {P_2} + {P_3}
Option C (P=P1+P2+P3P = {P_1} + {P_2} + {P_3}) is correct because, according to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each gas.
