What symbol would you use for the mole fraction of A in a gaseous mixture?
The mole fraction of a component A in a gaseous mixture is denoted XA.
How do you calculate the mole fraction?
You calculate it by dividing the amount in moles of A by the total amount in moles of gas in the mixture.
What value should the mole fraction have?
Mole fractions can only have the value 0 to 1.
What would the sum of all components be equal to?
The sum of all components will be equal to 1.
What is partial pressure?
The partial pressure of A in a mixture of gases is the contribution that the gas makes to the total pressure of the gas mixture.
What symbol would you use for partial pressure ?
Partial pressure of A is denoted PA
How do you calculate partial pressure?
The partial pressure can be calculated by multiplying the total pressure by the mole fraction.
What happens to Kp when you change temperature?
Kp is constant at a particular temperature.
What conditions affect Kp?
It is affected by temperature but isn’t affected by pressure, catalysts or concentrations.
What do the brackets for Kp look like?
