A binary mixture of oxygen and nitrogen with partial pressures in the ratio 0.21 and 0.79 is contained in a vessel at 300 K. If the total pressure of the mixture is 1 * 10 ^5 N/m^2, find molar concentration of oxygen
(a) 8.42 * 10^-1 kg mol/m^3
(b) 8.42 * 10^-2 kg mol/m^3
(c) 8.42 * 10^-3 kg mol/m^3
(d) 8.42 * 10^-4 kg mol/m^3
I have been asked this question at a job interview.
My enquiry is from Concentrations, Velocities and Fluxes in division Modes and Diffusion of Mass Transfer
