Description: Dalton's law states that the pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gasses. Remains valid up to high pressures.

TeX format: P_{total} = \sum_{i = 1}^{n}p_i

Ptotal{P_{total}} = Total pressure (Pa) {Pa}
p1, p2 ... = Partial pressures (Pa) {Pa}
Keywords: gas • ideal gas • air pressure • Dalton
