To determine

To show: The total pressure in a container filled with a mixture of several ideal gases is given by (P=P1+P2+P3+.........) .

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Assuming a total pressure of 9.5 X 105 Pa, what is the partial pressure of each component in the mixture of 98% helium and 2.0% oxygen breathed by deep-sea divers? How does the partial pressure of oxygen in diving gas compare with its partial pressure in normal air?
A gas is confined in a cylinder with a diameter of 0.47 m by a piston, on which a counterweight rests. Together, the piston and the counterweight have a mass of 150 kg. The local gravitational acceleration is 9.813 m/s^2, and the atmospheric pressure is 101.57 kPa. a. What is the force in newtons exerted on the gas by the atmosphere, piston, and counterweight, assuming there is no friction between the piston and the cylinder? Answer: F = 1.91 x 10^4 N. b. What is the gas pressure in kPa? Answer: Pabs = 110.054 kPa. c. If the gas in the cylinder is heated, it expands, pushing the piston and counterweight upward. If the piston and counterweight are lifted by 0.83 m, what is the work done by the gas in kJ? What is the change in potential energy of the piston and counterweight? Answer: w = 15.848 kJ, and ΔEp = 1.222 kJ.
The absolute pressure inside an oxygen tank is P=100kPa, the temperature is 27°C, and the mass is m=3.0 kg.  Assume the oxygen behaves as an ideal gas. The gas constant of oxygen is R=0.2598 kPa·m3/kg·K. The temperature relation is T(K)=T(°C)+273. Determine the volume of  oxygen tank ______ m3
