Answer:
1.6 atm
Explanation:
We are given that total pressure of mixture of two gases=5.7 atm
Partial pressure of one gas=4.1 atm
We have to find the partial pressure of other branch.
We know that Dalton;s law of partial pressure
It states that pressure exerted by mixture of gases is equal to sum of partial pressure exerted by gases in mixture.
Let x bet the pressure exert by other gas
Apply this law
Total pressure=4.1+x
\(5.7=4.1+x\)
\(x=5.7-4.1=1.6\)
Hence, the partial pressure of other gas=1.6 atm.
