What is the total pressure exerted by a mixture containing two gases if the partial pressure of one gas is 70 kPa and the partial pressure of the other gas is 30 kPa?

The total pressure of a mixture of gases can be defined as the sum of the pressures of each individual gas: Ptotal=P1+P2+… +Pn. + P n . The partial pressure of an individual gas is equal to the total pressure multiplied by the mole fraction of that gas.

hope this helps have a wonderfull day!

nanotechnology is a powerful tool in biomaterials research as it creates numerous possibilities for the engineering of functional molecules. nano-bio refers to projected ability to incorporate biomimicry into various materials at nanoscale.  

in the given question, the partial pressure is calculated by using the ideal gas equation, that is, pv = nrt

here, p is pressure, v is volume = 25 l, n is number of moles = 0.0104 moles, r is gas constant = -0.0821 l.atm / mol.k

t is temperature = 273 k

p = nrt / v

p = (0.0104 mol × 0.0821 l.atm / mol.k × 273 k) / 25 l

= 0.0093 atm
