Question

What is the total gas pressure in a sealed flask that contains oxygen at a partial pressure of 0.40 atm and water vapor at a partial pressure of 0.49 atm?

Answer 1

Answer:0.89 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

P(total) = P1 + P2 + ......on

But since there are just two gases the total pressure is the sum of the two partial pressures which are

0.49 + 0.40 = 0.89 atm
