Agas used to extinguish fires is composed of 75 % co2 and 25 % n2. it is stored in a 5 m3 tank at 300 kpa and 25 °c. what is the partial pressure of the co2 in the tank in psia?

Answer : The partial pressure of the in the tank in psia is, 32.6 psia.

Explanation :

As we are given 75 % and 25 % in terms of volume.

First we have to calculate the moles of and .

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of .

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of the gas.

conversion used : (1 Kpa = 0.145 psia)

Therefore, the partial pressure of the in the tank in psia is, 32.6 psia.
