eaexerted by the mixture will equal the sum ofpressures on the unit of area exerted by thegases severally. From the second law a very convenientformula can be easily deduced. Let v^, 7o, ■zo . . . . be the volumes ofseveral gases under pressure of py,p..,p,, ....respectively. Suppose these gases… … Fig. 165. 166 On Gases. [188- and so on. But from the above law P=A+A+ • • • therefore VP = v^p^ + v.^p.^ + v.^p.^ + . . . It obviously follows that if the pressures are all the same, the volume of themixture equals the sum of the separate volumes. The first law was shown experimentally by…
