Question

Air is about 78.0% nitrogen moleculesand 21.0% oxygen molecules. Several other gases make up theremaining 1% of air molecules. Part A What is the partial pressure of nitrogen inair at atmospheric pressure (1 atm)? Assume ideal behavior. Express your answer numerically inatmospheres. Air is about 78.0% nitrogen moleculesand 21.0% oxygen molecules. Several other gases make up theremaining 1% of air molecules. Part A What is the partial pressure of nitrogen inair at atmospheric pressure (1 atm)? Assume ideal behavior. Express your answer numerically inatmospheres.

Explanation / Answer

Partial Pressure = Hole Pressure x Percentage of thegaz/100
Prwssure Of Nitrogen = 1 atm x0.78 = 0.78 atm
