Exercise I on Finding Total Pressure: Solutions Tips

Question: What is the total pressure exerted by a mixture of 2.00 g of H₂ and 8.00 g of N₂ at 273 K in a 10.0 L vessel?

Solution Tips:

Since we have a mixture of gasses, Dalton's law will be used here
P_total = (n_H2 + n_N2 )(RT/V)

Given the amounts (in grams) of each gas, these should be converted to moles using the relation between grams and moles (nM = w (in grams))

The gas constant (R) to be used here is 0.08206 atm·L/mol·K
