Dalton's Law and Partial Pressures

The video tutorial explains Dalton's Law, focusing on the behavior of gas mixtures. It introduces the concept of partial pressure, which is the pressure exerted by an individual gas in a mixture, and how it relates to the total pressure. The tutorial also covers the mole fraction, a measure of the number of moles of a substance compared to the total moles present, and how it is used to calculate partial pressures. An example using Earth's atmosphere demonstrates these concepts. The video concludes with advanced calculations using the ideal gas law to find total and partial pressures.
