Five gases combined in a gas cylinder have the following partial pressures: 3.00 atm (N2), 1.80 atm (O2), 0.29 atm (Ar), 0.18 atm (He), and 0.10 atm (H). What is the total pressure that is exerted by the gases?

    This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:

    P = 3.00 atm + 1.80 atm + 0.29 atm + 0.18 atm + 0.10 atm

    P = 5.37 atm
