A) in a closed process with a constant flow rate changes in fluid velocity effect pressure

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dalton's law, also known as Dalton's law of partial pressures, states that in a mixture of non-reacting gases, the total pressure exerted is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. This means that each gas in a mixture behaves as if it were the only gas present and exerts pressure independently of the other gases.
