The total pressure of all the gases inside a metal container is 9.8 atm. If the partial pressure of the oxygen in the container is 4.2 atm, what is the partial pressure of the rest of the gases in the container other than the oxygen?
In a container, the sum of partial pressures equals the total pressure. If the sun is 9.8 atm and the partial pressure of oxygen is 4.2 atm, the rest of the gases must account for the other 5.6 atm.
