Three containers of the same volume contain three different gases. The masses of the molecules are m 1 m 2 and m 3 , and the number of molecules in their respective containers are N 1 N 2 and N 3 . The gas pressure in the containers are P 1 , P 2 and P 3 respectively. All the gases are now mixed and put in one of these containers. The pressure P of the mixture will be (a) P 1 +P 2 +P 3 ) (b) P = (P 1 + P 2 + P 3 )/3 (c) P = P 1 + P 2 + P 3 (d) P > (P 1 + P 2 + P 3 )

(b)  P = (P1 + P2 + P3)/3  


(c)    P = P1 + P2 + P3


(d)    P > (P1 + P2 + P3)

(c)

According to Dalton''s law of partial pressures, we have P = P1 + P2 + P3
