Equal masses of H 2 ( g ) and He ( g ) are enclosed in a container at constant temperature. The ratio of partial pressure of H 2 to He is
A. 1 : 1
B. 1 : 2
C. 2 : 1
D. 1 : 4
Correct Option is (C)
Let the mass be ', x '.
n H 2 = xg 2 g mol − 1 = x 2
n He = xg 4 g mol − 1 = x 4 n Total = 3 x 4
Now,
x H 2 = n n Total = x / 2 3 x / 4 = 2 3 x H e = n n Total = x / 4 3 x / 4 = 1 3
P H 2 = x H 2 × P Total = 2 3 × P P He = x He × P Total = 1 3 × P P H 2 : P H e = 2 / 3 P 1 / 3 P = 2 : 1
