Question

What is Dalton’s law of partial pressures?

Answer 1

The total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-reacting gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases present in the mixture.

P = P₁ + P₂ + P₃ + ....

Here, P₁, P₂, P₃ are the partial pressures of the different gases in the mixture.
