Solution:

DATA: Temperature =37°C = 310°k


Volume = 13 dm3
Pressure = 1atm = 760 torr
Mass of H2 = 0.8 g
Mass of helium = 0.12 g
First of all, we have to calculate number of moles of hydrogen and helium.

0.8
moles of hydrogen= =0.39 moles
2.016
0.12
moles of helium = =0.06 moles
2

then convert pressure atm to torr


so, 1atm = 760 torr

then find general gas constant


760𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑟×22.4𝑑𝑚3
R=
1𝑚𝑜𝑙×273𝑘

R=62.36
𝑛𝐻𝑒𝑅𝑇
now calculate partial pressure of H2 PHe =
𝑉
𝑛𝐻2𝑅𝑇 62.36×0.06×310
PH2= =
𝑉 13
62.36×0.39×310 1159.896
= =
13 13

7539.324
= = 89.222 torr
13
=579.948 torr

Total pressure =669.17 torr =0.88 atm
