Proponent of the
Combined Gas Law and
came up in 1834
About
The combined gas law makes use of the
relationships shared by pressure, volume, and
temperature: the variables found in other gas
laws, such as Boyle's law, Charles' law and
Gay-Lussac's law.
Formula
Where: Application
Pi = initial pressure The combined gas law can be used to
Vi = initial volume explain the mechanics where pressure,
Ti = initial temperature temperature, and volume are affected. For
Pf = final pressure example: air conditioners, refrigerators and
Vf= final volume the formation of clouds and also use in fluid
Tf = final temperature mechanics and thermodynamics.

DALTON'S LAW OF
PARTIAL PRESSURE
the total pressure of a mixture of gases
WHAT IS DALTON'S
LAW OF PARTIAL
PRESSURE?
Dalton’s law of partial pressures is
a gas law which states that the
total pressure exerted by a mixture
of gases is equal to the sum of the
partial pressures exerted by each
individual gas in the mixture..
RELATIONS WITH
IDEAL GAS
This empirical relation was
stated by the English chemist
John Dalton in 1801. It follows
from the kinetic theory of gases
under the assumption of a
perfect (ideal) gas and assumes
no chemical interaction
between the component gases
MOLE FRACTIONS
The mole fraction is a way
of expressing the relative
proportion of one
particular gas within a
mixture of gases
EXPRESSING PARTIAL
PRESSURES IN TERMS
OF MOLE FRACTION
The mole fraction of a specific
gas in a mixture of gases is
equal to the ratio of the partial
pressure of that gas to the total
pressure exerted by the gaseous
mixture.
COLLECTION OF A
GAS OVER WATER
The Law of Partial Pressures is
commonly applied in looking at
the pressure of a closed
container of gas and water. The
total pressure of this system is
the pressure that the gas exerts
on the liquid.
