Questions With Correct Answers
It is one thing to understand the behaviors of individual gases. But what happens when the gas
you are studying is actually a mixture of gases? Chemist John Dalton considered this issue and
formulated Dalton's law of partial pressures. In this lesson, you will learn about Dalton's law of
partial pressures and how it applies to chemistry, mountain climbing, and scuba diving. -
answer✔✔The behavior of mixtures of gases can be understood by using the law of partial
pressures.
Although pure gases are used in many examples of the gas laws, many gases are actually
mixtures. For example, the air that we breathe is a mixture of 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and
1% other gases (carbon dioxide, argon, hydrogen, and others). Do mixtures of gases behave the
same way as pure gases?
In 1801, John Dalton addressed the issue of gas mixtures. He found the following:
-Gas mixtures behave the same way that pure gases do.
-Individual gases behave independently of the mixture.
-Individual gases contribute to the pressure of the mixture.
Dalton's findings have important implications in scuba diving, flying aircraft at high altitudes,
mountain climbing, and chemistry. - answer✔✔Dalton addressed the issue of gas mixtures.
John Dalton develops the law of partial pressures.
