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

Options

  1. AP=n1RTV+n2RTV+n3RTVP = {n}_{1}\dfrac{RT}{V} + {n}_{2}\dfrac{RT}{V} + {n}_{3}\dfrac{RT}{V}
  2. BPi=XiP{P}_{i} = {X}_{i}P, where Pi={P}_{i} = partial pressure of ith{i}^{th} gas
    Xi={X}_{i} = mole fraction ith{i}^{th} gas in gaseous mixture
  3. CPi=XiPio{P}_{i} = {X}_{i}{P}_{i}^{o}, where Xi={X}_{i} = mole fraction of ith{i}^{th} gas in gaseous mixture
    Pio={P}_{i}^{o} = pressure of ith{i}^{th} gas in pure state
  4. DP=P1+P2+P3P = {P}_{1} + {P}_{2} + {P}_{3}

Correct answer

C. Pi=XiPio{P}_{i} = {X}_{i}{P}_{i}^{o}, where Xi={X}_{i} = mole fraction of ith{i}^{th} gas in gaseous mixture
Pio={P}_{i}^{o} = pressure of ith{i}^{th} gas in pure state

Step-by-step solution

Dalton’s law of partial pressures is a gas law which states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures exerted by each individual gas in the mixture.

P=P1+P2+P3P = {P}_{1} + {P}_{2} + {P}_{3}

P1,P2andP3{P}_{1}, {P}_{2}and{P}_{3} are the partial pressures and PP is the total pressure.

According to ideal gas equation

P1=n1RTV,P2=n2RTVandP3=n3RTV{P}_{1} = \dfrac{{n}_{1}RT}{V}, {P}_{2} = \dfrac{{n}_{2}RT}{V}and{P}_{3} = \dfrac{{n}_{3}RT}{V}

Partial pressure of the individual gas can be expressed as follows,

Pi=XiP{P}_{i} = {X}_{i}P, PP is total pressure.
