Answer:
Option B. 101.60 KPa
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Total pressure (Pₜ) = 105.00 KPa
Partial pressure of wet gas (Pᵥᵥ) at 26 °C = 3.4 KPa
Partial pressure of dry gas (Pₔ) =?
Total pressure = partial pressure of dry gas + partial pressure of wet gas
Pₜ = Pₔ + Pᵥᵥ
105 = Pₔ + 3.4
Collect like terms
105 – 3.4 = Pₔ
Pₔ = 101.60 KPa
Therefore, the partial pressure of the dry gas is 101.60 KPa
