Given information
A flask at room temperature contains exactly equal amounts (in moles) of nitrogen and xenon.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Part a:
The partial pressure exerted by the gas molecules present in a mixture of gases which depends on the average velocity of the gas molecules. A gas with a higher average velocity exerts a greater partial pressure. Since the average velocity of xenon gas is less than that of nitrogen gas. Therefore, xenon gas exerts a lower partial pressure than nitrogen gas.
