A and B are ideal gases. The molecular weights of A and B are in the ratio of 1: 4 . The pressure of a gas mixture containing equal weights of A and B is P atm. What is the partial pressure (in atm) of B in the mixture?
Options
- AP 5
- BP 2
- CP 2.5
- D3 P 4
Correct answer
A. P 5
Step-by-step solution
Mol. wt. ratio of A and B=1: 4 mole ratio of A and B , if equal weight of A and B are taken =4: 1 aligned partial pressure of B & = 1 (1+4) P & = P 5 aligned
