Equation of State problem 2


In a 10-litre container is a mixture of helium and argon at a temperature of 273 K and a total pressure of 1 bar. The initial partial pressure ratio, defined as: is equal to 1.2. The initial mass of the mixture is 10 g. Then, 2 g of hydrogen gas is added to the mixture.

  • What is the ratio of the partial pressures of helium and argon after the addition of hydrogen?

  • What is the ratio of the partial pressures of helium and hydrogen? Write the result to 3 decimal places.


Gas constant:




The kilomolar masses of the mentioned elements:
