A container of 1 L capacity contains a mixture of 4 g of O_(2) and 2 g

1.	A container of 1 L capacity contains a mixture of 4 g of O_(2) and 2 g H_(2) at 0 .^(@)C . What will be the total pressure of the mixture ?(a) 50 . 42 atm(b) 25 . 21 atm(C) 15 . 2 atm(d) 12 . 5 atm
Answer» <P> SOLUTION :Calculation of TOTAL pressure : ACCORDING to Dalton.s law of partial pressure, the total pressure of the gaseous mixture is given by `P_(mixture) = P_(O_2)+P_(H_2) = 2.80 + 22.4 = 25.2` atm
