Answer: The total pressure inside the container is 1.07 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the total pressure of the container, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:


p_(N)=p_T* \chi_(N)

where,


p_N = partial pressure of nitrogen = 0.800 atm


p_T = total pressure


\chi_N = mole fraction of nitrogen = 0.750

Putting values in above equation, we get:


0.800atm=p_T* 0.750\\\\\p_T=(0.800atm)/(0.750)=1.07atm

Hence, the total pressure inside the container is 1.07 atm
