The mole fraction of dioxygen in a neon-dioxygen mixture is \(0.18\). If the total pressure of the mixture is 25 bar, the partial pressure of neon in the mixture would be

  1. A \(25.18\) bar
  2. B \(25.82\) bar
  3. C \(4.5 \mathrm{bar}\)
  4. D \(20.5 \mathrm{bar}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(20.5 \mathrm{bar}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(p_{\text {total }}=25\) bar, \(\chi_{O_{2}}=0.18\) Using the relation; \(\chi_{\mathrm{O}_{2}}+\chi_{\mathrm{Ne}}=1\)…
