Understanding partial pressure and operating pressure
Thread Content
Dear seniors, does a system generally measure the operating voltage? And how is the voltage division obtained? What’s the use? Not quite sure? Is the partial pressure of a pure substance equal to the operating pressure? Please explain, thank you
Voltage division is calculated; what can be measured is the total voltage
How is it possible to measure the voltage division? Think carefully about high school chemistry~
Partial pressure plays a significant role; it is recommended to review the relevant chapters on principles of chemical engineering and chemical thermodynamics. Pure substances do not have partial pressure, as this concept applies only to mixtures of various substances. The value measured should be the total pressure
The voltage division ratio can be simply understood as the concentration ratio. Pure gases do not have partial pressures; only impure gases do. I think we learned about it in physical chemistry; I just can’t remember the details
By the way, using Clausius-Clapeyron equation PV=nRT, we can derive that P/P2=n1/n2
