Dalton’s law of partial pressure :It states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-reacting gases occupying a vessel is equal to the sum of the individual pressures which each gases exert if it alone occupied the same volume at a given temperature.

Now, let us have a mixture of 'n' gases, so from the above statement we can conclude that - 

 

                                                     \text { For } n \text { gases } P=P_{1}+P_{2}+P_{3}+\ldots . . P_{n}

Here, P = Pressure exerted by the mixture of gases

          P1,P2. . . . . . Pn = Partial pressure of the component gases.
