“Total pressure of gas mixture is the sum of individual pressures”. Which law is reflected in this statement?(a) Amagat’s law(b) Raoult’s law(c) Dalton’s law(d) Henry’s lawThe question was posed to me in examination.My question comes from Vapour Pressure of Liquid Solutions in chapter Solutions of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (c) Dalton’s law

Easiest EXPLANATION: Dalton’s of partial pressure states that for a non-reactive mixture of gases in a closed VESSEL, the total pressure of the mixture is the sum of PRESSURES all INDIVIDUAL gas components present. If gases A, B and C are present then, total pressure, Ptotal = PA + PB + PC.
