A gaseous mixture contains $0.50 mol$ $CO X_{2}$ , $1.20 mol$ $N X_{2}$ and $0.80 mol$ $O X_{2}$ at a total pressure of $2.0 atm$ . The partial pressure of $CO X_{2}$ in atm (two decimals) is

Numerical answer type, answer in atm, tolerance 0.01.

Total moles

= 2.50

x_{CO X_{2}} = 0.50/2.50 = 0.20

p_{CO X_{2}} = 0.20 \times 2.0 = 0.40 atm
