Partial pressure of a molecule is air pressure multiplied by its mole fraction.
In 2nd part the deviation between the two values is due to
turbulent mixing .
6) In the absence of turbulent mixing, the partial pressure of each constituent of air would...
The atmospheric pressure varies proportionally from sea level to height, and the air temperature drops by 6K for every T km increase (a) Draw a cylindrical volume that is height inside the atmosphere, and then calculate the pressure change and expression (dP/dy-pg) depending on the height. (b) obtain the temperature change of the atmosphere accordingto the height y(km) in the place where the sea level (y-0) is at ToK temperature. (c) obtain a barometric equation which allows for the change...
Problem2 (a) Suppose outside temperature is 55 °F while the temperature inside a building is 72 F. The building is heated but not air conditioned, so the partial pressure of water vapor is the same both inside and outside the building. Finally, suppose the dew point outside is 40°F What is the dew point inside? What are the relative humidities inside and outside the building? (We are most comfortable if relative humidity is between 30% and 50%-This question shows why...
