Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Raoult's law, the partial pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component multiplied by the total pressure.


p_1=x_1p_(total)

where, x = mole fraction


p_(total) = total pressure


x_(oxygen)=\frac{\text {moles of oxygen}}{\text {total moles}},


x_(oxygen)=(3.0)/(12.33)=0.243,


p_(oxygen)=0.243* 770torr=187torr

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.
