Dalton'S Law of Partial Pressures
Dalton'S Law of Partial Pressures
Dalton'S Law of Partial Pressures
-states that for a mixture of gases where no reaction takes place between the
components, the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of the gas
components
Partial pressure: the pressure of each gas component; the pressure that the gas
would exert alone [Note: Each gas behaves independently]
Formula: = + + +..
Sample Problem:
Solution:
Sample Problem:
4. If a mixture of gases contains 7.50 g H2, 3.25 g O2, and 5.55 g N2. What is the
mole fraction of each of the gases?
GAS STOICHIOMETRY
Stoichiometry: the study and calculation of quantitative relationships of the
reactants and products in chemical reactions (chemical equations)
Key Points:
At Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP), 1 mole of any gas will occupy a
volume of 22.4 L.
The Ideal Gas Law, along with a balanced chemical equation, can be used to
solve for the amount, either in volume or mass, of gas consumed or
produced in a chemical reaction.

What volume of 3 will be formed from 12.0 L of 2 , if the volumes of the gases
are measured under identical conditions of T and P? Assume that volume of 2
supplied is an excess of that necessary to completely react all available 2 () and
that the reaction goes by completion.
