Q. Dalton's law of partial pressures is applicable to which one of the following systems ?

KCETKCET 2007States of Matter

Solution:

When a mixture of two or more non-reacting gases are enclosed in a container then the total pressure exerted by the gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of partial pressure of the components in the mixture. eg, $CO + H_2$ are non-reacting gases. Hence,
Dalton’s law of partial pressure is applicable to this system.
