When we place two gases in a container, the total pressure exerted by the mixture is
= Sum of partial pressure of each gas
When we place 1 mol of Oxygen & 1 mol of Hydrogen in a container
The ideal gas law
Where,
P - Pressure exerted by the gas in
n - Amount of gas in
R - Universal gas constant = 21.85
T - Absolute temperature of the gas in
V - Volume of the gas in
At 68° F, consider placing 1 lb of Hydrogen gas () and 1 lb of Oxygen gas () in a container of 15 .

H = 1.008 gram/mol
H2 = 2.016 gram/mol
= 2.016 ÷ 454 lb/mol
= 0.00444 lb/mol
O = 15.999 gram/mol
O2 = 31.998 gram/mol
= 31.998 ÷ 454 lb/mol
= 0.07048 lb/mol
Then,
1 lb of = 1 ÷ 0.00444 mol
= 225.225 mol
= 225.225 ÷ 454 lb-mol
= 0.496 lb-mol
1 lb of = 1 ÷ 0.07048 mol
= 14.188 mol
= 14.188 ÷ 454 lb-mol
= 0.03125 lb-mol
T = 68° F
= 68 + 459.67 ° R
= 527.67° R
= 381.25 + 24.02
= 405.27 mmHg
