A gas mixture contains 20% CO, 30% SO2, and 50% N2, if the partial pressure of N2 is 5 atm at 27^oC, what is the molar volume of N2?(a) 2.4 liter(b) 3.7 liter(c) 4.9 liter(d) 5.6 literThe question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.Origin of the question is Ideal Gas Mixtures and Partial Pressure in chapter Recycle, Bypass, Purge, Ideal Gases and Real Gases of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer» RIGHT ANSWER is (a) 2.4 liter

The best I can explain: Total pressure of MIXTURE = 5/0.5 = 10 ATM, => Molar Volume of N2 = Total molar volume of mixture = 0.0821*300/10 = 2.4 liter.
