A gas mixture has 30% O2, 40% H2, and 30% N2 with molar volume of N2 10 L/mole at temperature 27^oC, what is the partial pressure of H2?(a) 2.4 atm(b) 3.6 atm(c) 4.8 atm(d) 6.4 atmThis question was addressed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.Asked question is from Ideal Gas Mixtures and Partial Pressure in section Recycle, Bypass, Purge, Ideal Gases and Real Gases of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (a) 2.4 atm

For EXPLANATION I would say: MOLAR volume of H2 = molar volume of N2 = 10 L/mole, PV = NRT, => P*10 = 0.0821*300, => P = 2.4 atm.
