JEE Main & Advanced Physics Kinetic Theory of Gases Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Kinetic Theory

  • question_answer
    Three containers of the same volume contain three different gases. The masses of the molecules are \[{{m}_{1}},{{m}_{2}}\]and \[{{m}_{3}}\]the number of\[{{N}_{1}}\], \[{{N}_{2}}\] and \[{{N}_{3}}.\] The gas pressure in the containers \[{{P}_{1}},{{P}_{2}}\] and \[{{P}_{3}}\] respectively. All the gases are now mixed and put in one of these containers. The pressure P of the mixture will be

    A) \[P<\left( {{P}_{1}}+{{P}_{2}}+{{P}_{3}} \right)\]     

    B) \[P=\frac{{{P}_{1}}+{{P}_{2}}+{{P}_{3}}}{3}\]

    C) \[P={{P}_{1}}+{{P}_{2}}+{{P}_{3}}\]         

    D) \[P>\left( {{P}_{1}}+{{P}_{2}}+{{P}_{3}} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, we have \[P={{P}_{1}}+{{P}_{2}}+{{P}_{3}}\]
