(a)
Interpretation:
Flask with largest number of atoms in sample gases has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Dolton’s law of partial pressure gives relation between total pressure of mixture of gases and partial pressure of individual gases. The expression of relation can be represented as follows:
Here,
A and B are individual gases.
Root mean square speed is square root of average value of square of molecular speeds of molecules of gas. It includes molecular weight and temperature, both of which affect kinetic energy of a gas. It is denoted by
Here,
(b)
Interpretation:
Flask with highest pressure of gas from sample gases has to be determined.
