raptor-22 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Yep !! But I prefer Dalton's Law Some very interesting info here http://sheldonbrown.com/tires.html Still one of my favourites and all time "go to" sitesHier kan jy nie stry nie!! .Dalton's law on partitial pressures could be used with air situations although it is intended for gas mixtures that do not have a gas constant. Since air is a known mixture and the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen and argon does not vary significantly within the livable band of the atmosphere, Boyles law works just fine. But using dalton does sound more impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
