Question

Two gases A and B having same pressure P , volume V and absolute temperature T are mixed. If the mixture has the volume and temperature as V and T respectively, then the pressure of the mixture is (A)  2 P  (B)  P  (C)  (P/2)  (D)  4 P

The total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-reacting gases occupying a vessel is equal to the sum of the individual pressures which each gas exert if it alone occupied the same volume at a given temperature.
For two gases

P = P_{1} + P_{2} = P + P = 2 P

Q. Two gases $A$ and $B$ having same pressure $P$ , volume $V$ and absolute temperature $T$ are mixed. If the mixture has the volume and temperature as $V$ and $T$ respectively, then the pressure of the mixture is

$2 P$

$P$

$\frac{P}{2}$

$4 P$

The total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-reacting gases occupying a vessel is equal to the sum of the individual pressures which each gas exert if it alone occupied the same volume at a given temperature.
For two gases
$P = P_{1} + P_{2} = P + P = 2 P$
