Answer:
Partial pressure of Ne is 0.61 atm.
Explanation:
Mole fraction of a gas [tex](x)[/tex] in mixture = (no. of moles of the gas in mixture)/(total no. of moles of gases in mixture)
Here, total no. of moles of gases = (0.32 + 0.56) moles = 0.88 moles
So, mole fraction of Ne in mixture, [tex]x_{Ne}=\frac{0.56}{0.88}=0.64[/tex]
Let's assume both He and Ne along with their mixture behaves ideally,
Hence, in accordance with Dalton's law of partial pressure-
[tex]P_{Ne}=x_{Ne}\times P_{total}[/tex]
Where, [tex]P_{Ne}[/tex] and [tex]P_{total}[/tex] are partial pressure of Ne and total pressure respectively.
So, [tex]P_{Ne}=(0.64)\times (0.95atm)=0.61atm[/tex]
So, partial pressure of Ne is 0.61 atm.
