=Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure= Dalton's law of partial pressures states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of the component gas.This law is true regardless of the number of gases present.
 * Partial Pressure:** the pressure of each gas in a mixture.

PT= P1+P2+P3...
 * The Math**


 * Example**: The whole atmosphere has .7 atm from N2 gas. What pressure come from other gases?


 * Solution**: 1atm= .7atm N2 + X atm

-.7atm -.7atm N2 X atm= .3 atm
