Partial pressure

[Jorja De Jesus 2C]

Is there a difference between partial pressure and just pressure?

[Jacey Yang 1F]

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of each gas in a mixture.

[VPatankar_2L]

The partial pressure refers to the pressure of a gas that could be calculated if it were alone in a container of the same volume and at the same temperature as the original mixture.

[VioletKo3F]

In a mixture of gas, each gas is responsible for a partial pressure. In comparison, the total pressure is just the sum of these partial pressures.

[Norman Dis4C]

Total pressure is the sum of all gas's partial pressure. Since we only have to solve for the gas used in the reaction, we use the partial pressure instead.
