Partial pressure (P) is the pressure of a specific gas in a mixture.
1 of 6
How is partial pressure calculated?
It is calculated by multiplying the fractional composition of the gas by the atmospheric pressure.
2 of 6
What is Boyle's Law?
Boyle's law states that the higher the volume of a given quantity of gas, the more the pressure of that gas decreases.
3 of 6
What is Henry's law?
Henry's law states that the quantity of gas that dissolves at a given temp is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in the gas phase.

The rate of diffusion can be optimised by which 3 circumstances?
1) Increasing the areas over which diffusion occurs. 2) Decreasing the pressure difference between the 2 sides. 3) Decreasing the distance over which diffusion occurs.
