QUESTION:
Venus's atmosphere is composed of 96.5 percent \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\), 3.5 percent \(N_{2}\), and 0.015 percent \(\mathrm{SO}_{2}\) by volume. Its standard atmospheric pressure is \(9.0 \times 10^{6}\ \mathrm{Pa}\). Calculate the partial pressures of the gases in pascals.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Here we have to calculate the partial pressure of all the gases in pascals.
Given:
Venus’s atmosphere is composed of the following gases,
= 96.5%
= 3.5 %
= 0.015%
