NEET Physics Ideal Gas Equation MCQ Question
Consider a diagram showing two containers of equal volume, one holding neon gas and the other holding oxygen gas, both maintained at the same temperature. If the partial pressures of neon and oxygen are in the ratio 3:2, what is the ratio of the number of moles of neon to oxygen?

3:2
2:3
3:1
1:1
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the ideal gas equation, for gases at the same temperature and volume, the ratio of their partial pressures is equal to the ratio of their number of moles. Since the partial pressure ratio is 3:2, the mole ratio is also 3:2.
