A tank of volume V contains homogeneous mixture of two ideal gases, A and B at a temperature T and a pressure P. The mixture contains nA moles of gas A and nB moles of gas B. If PA and PB are the partial pressures of gas A and gas B, respectively, then
- A. 𝑃𝐴= 𝑛𝐴 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃, 𝑃𝐵= 𝑛𝐵 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃
- B. 𝑃𝐴= 𝑛𝐵 𝑛𝐴 𝑃, 𝑃𝐵= 𝑛𝐴 𝑛𝐵 𝑃
- C. 𝑃𝐴= 𝑛𝐴 𝑛𝐵 𝑃, 𝑃𝐵= 𝑛𝐵 𝑛𝐴 𝑃
- D. 𝑃𝐴= 𝑛𝐵 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃, 𝑃𝐵= 𝑛𝐴 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃
Answer: A. 𝑃𝐴= 𝑛𝐴 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃, 𝑃𝐵= 𝑛𝐵 𝑛𝐴+ 𝑛𝐵 𝑃
