The partial pressures of the gases in a mixture are 0.00461 atm O2, 1.78 atm N2, and 0.975 atm Ar. What is the total pressure of the mixture?

The total pressure of the mixture is 2.76 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

Given : =total pressure of gases = ?

= partial pressure of oxygen = 0.00461 atm

= partial pressure of nitrogen = 1.78 atm

= partial pressure of argon = 0.975 atm

putting in the values we get:

Thus the total pressure of the mixture is 2.76 atm

b..

is the correct one

explanation:

covalent bonds form as valence electrons are shared between two atoms. lewis structures and structural formulas are common ways of showing the covalent bonding in organic molecules. formal charge describes the changes in the number of valence electrons as an atom becomes bonded into a molecule.
