Will increasing the P total of a gas mix over the vapor pressure of one the gases vapor pressure force that constituent into the liquid phase if the partial pressure of the gas itself is not exceeded?

No, it will not condense if its partial pressure does not exceed its (maximum) partial pressure of the component's liquid (or solution) at the same(!) temperature.


How do you correct for the partial pressure of water vapor when calculating the partial pressure of a dry gas that is collected over water?

Pressures simply add. If the partial pressure of gas is three and the partial pressure of water is five, the total pressure is eight. Find the partial pressure for water at the temperature of your experiment, subtract it from your pressure reading. As an aside, if you've corked your glassware rather than using a slider or a water bath, expect stupid results.


What is the term that is used for the pressure of each gas in a mixture of gases?

The pressure of each gas in a mixture is called the partial pressure of that gas.


How do you convert mm Hg humdity to relative humdity in percentage?

From Wikipedia, article "relative humidity": "It is defined as the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor in the air-water mixture to the saturated vapor pressure of water at the prescribed temperature." So, you somehow measure the partial pressure of water vapor, look up the saturated vapor pressure of water for the current temperature, and take the ratio.


Does addition of noble gas effect partial pressures in gaseous equilibrium system?

Yes. If the pressure is increased, even with a noble gas, the reaction equilibrium will shift to alleviate and lower that increased pressure (if there are more moles of gas on one side of the reaction than the other).

What will the total pressure be and partial pressure be if two gases with pressures of 2 ATM and 3 ATM are mixed at a constant temperature?

The total pressure will be 5 atm and the partial pressure of gas 1 will be 2 atm and the partial pressure of gas 2 will be 3 atm.


How does pressure affect air?

When air pressure is Low it becomes very difficult to breath simply because air moves from high partial pressure to low partial pressure.


Is the partial pressure of a liquid or solid in a closed container measured at equilibrium at a given temperature?

vapor pressure

What is the relationship of the partial pressure of a gas and its diffusion rate?

The higher the pressure, the more easily a chemical diffuses. And seeing as pressure and temperature are directly related, the higher the temperature the more easily a chemical diffuses, and vice versa. This is caused by everything "wanting" to be equal, if there is a higher pressure, then it will diffuse to an area of lower pressure.

As partial pressure increases what happens to the rate of diffusion?

Rate of diffusion will increase.

What will happen to the ratio of partial pressure of PCl5 to partial pressure of PCl3 if the temperature is raised?

Decreases. Delta S will be negative since 2 mol of gaseous reactants form 1 mol of gaseous product.


What is the partial pressure of gas in a mixture of gases?

The partial pressure is the pressure exerted by just one gas in the mixture.
