Dalton's law of partial pressure is applicable to which one of the following systems?
Options
- ANH ₃+ HCl
- BNO + O ₂
- CH ₂+ Cl ₂
- DCO + H ₂
Correct answer
D. CO + H ₂
Step-by-step solution
When a mixture of two or more non-reacting gases are enclosed in a container then the total pressure exerted by the gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of partial pressure of the components in the mixture. e.g. CO + H ₂ are non-reacting gases. Hence, Dalton's law of partial pressure is applicable to this system.
