A mixture of nitrogen and xenon gases contains nitrogen at a partial pressure of 417 mm Hg and xenon at a partial pressure of 427 mm Hg. What is the mole fraction of each gas in the mixture

0.4941, 0.5059

Explanation:

= Partial pressure of nitrogen = 417 mm Hg

= Partial pressure of xenon = 427 mm Hg

Total pressure in the system is given by

Mole fraction is given by

For xenon

or

So, mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.4941 and xenon is 0.5059.
