Given:
 
Molecular weights of gases A and B are in the ratio of 1:4.
 
Let,
 
Molecular weight of gas A = 'x'
 
Molecular weight of gas B = '4x'
 
The mixture gases conatins equal weights of gas A and gas B
 
Let,
 
Weight of gas A = Weight of gas B = 'm' gm
 
Let total pressure be 'P'
We know
 
To calculate the partial pressure of gas B in the mixture, lets first calculate the mole fraction of gas B.
 
Mole fraction of gas B 
 
equals space fraction numerator begin display style bevelled fraction numerator straight m over denominator 4 straight x end fraction end style over denominator begin display style bevelled fraction numerator straight m over denominator 4 straight x end fraction plus bevelled straight m over straight x end style end fraction

equals space 1 fifth

straight P subscript straight B space equals space Mole space fraction space of space straight B space cross times space Total space pressure

space space space space space equals straight P over 5
