NEET levelSingle correct optionDifficulty 1 of 3ig005

Dalton's law of partial pressures is strictly applicable to a mixture of

A $NH X_{3}$ and $HCl$
B $N X_{2}$ and $O X_{2}$
C $SO X_{2}$ and $O X_{2}$ in the presence of a catalyst
D $NO$ and $O X_{2}$

Answer: B

Dalton's law holds only for gases that do not react with each other.

NH X_{3}

reacts with

HCl

to give solid

NH X_{4} Cl

,

NO

reacts with

O X_{2}

to give

NO X_{2}

, and

SO X_{2}

with

O X_{2}

reacts over a catalyst.

N X_{2}

and

O X_{2}

do not react at ordinary conditions, so the law applies.
