The pressure of the resultant mixture is 113.0 kPa. What is the pressure that is exerted by the dry hydrogen alone? (Given; Pwater vapour: 11.99 mmHg) 2. A mixture of oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen gases exerts a total pressure of 278 kPa. If the partial pressures of the oxygen and the hydrogen are 112 kPa and 101 kPa respectively, what would be the partial pressure exerted by the nitrogen. 3. A mixture of neon and argon gases exerts a total pressure of 2.39 atm. The partial pressure of the neon alone is 1.84 atm, what is the partial pressure of the argon? 4. 888 cm3 of oxygen are collected over water with a temperature of 27 oC.
