Question

Transcribed Image Text:** 16. If nitrogen gas and oxygen gas are combined in a tank, they will be at the same tem-
perature and fill the same volume.
a) Basing your explanation on the kinetic theory of gases, as derived in Section 15.1,
explain why you would find the total pressure in the tank by adding together the indi-
vidual pressures of the nitrogen and oxygen acting alone. This conclusion is known as
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures.
b) A 1-m³ tank contains 0.8 moles of nitrogen and 0.2 moles of oxygen at 300 K. What is
the total pressure in the tank?
