Respuesta :

partial pressure in a mixture of two or more gases will be given by formula

[tex]P_{partial}[/tex] = mole fraction of gas * total pressure

now here mole fraction is same as percentage of gas in the mixture

Now mole fraction of oxygen is 0.20095 (20.095%)

now here pressure of oxygen in the mixture is given as

[tex]P_{o_2} = 0.20095 * P_{total}[/tex]

[tex]P_{o_2} = 0.20095 * 1.7[/tex]

[tex]P_{o_2} = 0.342 atm[/tex]

so pressure due to oxygen in the mixture will be 0.342 atm

Answer:

20.095
