One Mole of Hydrogen Gas And 12\frac{1}{2} Mole of Helium Gas Are Mixed in a Container and Gas

Question 64

Multiple Choice

One mole of hydrogen gas and 12\frac{1}{2} mole of helium gas are mixed in a container and maintained at a fixed temperature TT . How does the total pressure PHP_{\mathrm{H}} exerted by the hydrogen molecules compare to the total pressure PHeP_{\mathrm{He}} exerted by the helium molecules? Note that a molecule (atom) of helium has twice the mass of an H2\mathrm{H}_{2} molecule.


A) PH=2PHeP_{\mathrm{H}}=2 P_{\mathrm{He}}
B) PH=2PHeP_{\mathrm{H}}=\sqrt{2} P_{\mathrm{He}}
C) PH=PHeP_{\mathrm{H}}=P_{\mathrm{He}}
D) PH=12PHeP_{\mathrm{H}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} P_{\mathrm{He}}
E) PH=12PHeP_{\mathrm{H}}=\frac{1}{2} P_{\mathrm{He}}
F) Other (specify)
