Equal masses of helium and oxygen are mixed in a container at `25 C^(@)` . The fraction of the total pressure exerted by oxygen in the mixture of gases isA. 1/3B. 2/3C. 1/9D. 4/9

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Mole fraction of `O_(2)=((w)/(32))/((w)/(32)+(w)/(4))=(w)/(32)xx(32)/(9w)=(1)/(9)`
partial pressure of oxygen `=Pxx x_(O_(2))`
`=P_("total")xx(1)/(9)` or `(1)/(9)P_("total")`
