Law of partial pressures

The law of partial pressures, also known as Dalton’s law, states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases in the mixture. In other words, if you have a gas mixture made up of two or more gases, the total pressure…

Deviation from ideality

In many fields, including physics, chemistry, and engineering, the concept of an ideal situation or system is often used as a theoretical or idealized benchmark for comparison with real-world situations. However, in practice, it is rare to encounter a situation that perfectly conforms to the ideal model. When a system deviates from the ideal model,…
