Q.

At 270C, a closed vessel contains a mixture of equal weights of helium (mol. wt = 4), methane (mol.wt = 16) and sulphur dioxide (mol. wt = 64). The pressure exerted by the mixture is 210 mm. If the partial pressures of helium, methane and sulphurdioxide are P1, P2 and P3 respectively, which one of the following is correct?
