Dalton's Partial Pressure

In a mixture of gases, each gas contributes to the total pressure. The individual contribution of each gas is known as the _________________.

• partial volume

• partial pressure

• molar mass

• mole ratio

What units will be found in the variables of a Dalton's law problem?

• kilopascals (kPa)

• liters (L)

• Kelvins (K)

• moles (mol)

Dalton's law equation is used to find what?

• the density of a pure gas

• the total pressure of a pure gas

• the total pressure of a gas mixture

• the volume of a gas mixture

Dalton's Law states...

• that at a constant temperature the volume of a confined ideal gas varies inversely with its pressure.

• that the total pressure exerted by the mixture of non-reactive gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of individual gases

• how gases tend to expand when heated

• that the density of an ideal gas at constant pressure varies inversely with the absolute temperature of the gas.
