Chapter 17, Problem 17A.1AE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The partial pressure for the species in the reaction ${\text{2ICl(g) + H}}_2\text{(g) }\stackrel{}{\to }{\text{ I}}_2\text{(g) + 2HCl(g)}$ has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Partial pressure:

The total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressure of component gases.

    ${\text{P}}_{\text{tot}}{\text{= P}}_{\text{1}}{\text{+ P}}_{\text{2}}{\text{+P}}_{\text{3}}{\text{+P}}_{\text{4}}\mathrm{.......}\text{= }{\displaystyle \sum _{\text{i=1}}^{\text{n}}{\text{P}}_{\text{i}}}$
