Answer:

P subscript 2 = 4408 - 1520 + 25

P subscript 2 = 4408 - 1545

P subscript 2 = 2863 torr

Partial Pressure for O2 = 2863 torr

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the partial pressure for O2, you are expected to sum that of N2 and Helium then subtract it from the pressure of the gas cylinder
