Question:

Which one is not correct mathematical equation for Dalton's Law of partial pressure? Here p = total pressure of gaseous mixture

Updated On: May 13, 2024
  • p = p1 + p2 + p3
  • p = n1(\(\frac{RT}{V}\)) + n2(\(\frac{RT}{V}\)) + n3(\(\frac{RT}{V}\))
  • pi = χip, where pi = partial pressure of ith gas; χi = mole fraction of ith gas in gaseous mixture
  • pi = χipio, where χi = mole fraction of ith gas in gaseous mixture pio = pressure of ith gas in pure state

States of Matter

The matter is made up of very tiny particles and these particles are so small that we cannot see them with naked eyes.

There are three States of Matter:

The three states of matter are as follows:

Solid State:

  • The solid-state is one of the fundamental states of matter.
  • Solids differ from liquids and gases by the characteristic of rigidity.
  • The molecules of solids are tightly packed because of strong intermolecular forces; they only oscillate about their mean positions.

Liquid State:

  • The molecules in a liquid are closely packed due to weak intermolecular forces.
  • These forces are weaker than solids but stronger than that of gases.
  • There is much space in between the molecules of liquids which makes their flowing ability easy.

Gaseous State:

  • In this state of matter, distances between the molecules are large (intermolecular distance is in the range of 10-7-10-5 cm.
  • The intermolecular forces experienced between them are negligible.
  • Thus, translatory, rotatory and vibratory motions are observed prominently in gases.
