Question

2 L of $SO_2$ gas at 760 mm Hg are transferred to 10 L flask containing oxygen at a particular temperature, the partial pressure of $SO_2$ in the flask is

• A. 63.33 mm Hg
• B. 152 mm Hg
• C. 760 mm Hg
• D. 1330 mm Hg

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

152 mm Hg

Answer 2

$pSO_2 = \frac{P \times V}{V_{Total}} = \frac{760 \times 2000}{10000}$ = 152 mm Hg
