How does Dalton's law apply to the atmosphere? - correct answer Dalton's law states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases equals the sum of the pressures produced by each constitute gas. The pressure balance is a condition in the atmosphere because at any point in a gas, or a mixture of gases, pressure is exerted equally in all directions. Provide a definition of air pressure that applies to Earth's surface and any altitude withi...
