if the partial pressure of the diatomic gas is .300 atm, what is the total pressure?
6 blue dots
5 orange dots
3 green dots consisting of 2 dots each (diatomic gas)
I can't decipher the problem.
To find the total pressure, you need to add up the partial pressures contributed by each component.
In this case, you have:
- 6 blue dots: The contribution of the blue dots to the overall pressure is not mentioned, so we don't include it in the calculation.
- 5 orange dots: The partial pressure contributed by the orange dots is also not mentioned, so we don't include it either.
- 3 green dots consisting of 2 dots: This is the diatomic gas, and you are given that its partial pressure is 0.300 atm.
Since the partial pressure of the diatomic gas is given as 0.300 atm, that represents the contribution of the diatomic gas to the total pressure. Therefore, the total pressure would be equal to 0.300 atm.
