Answer:

53.7kPa

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Total pressure of the mixture  = 96.4kPa

partial pressure of hydrogen  = 13.4kPa

partial pressure of oxygen  = 29.3kPa

Unknown:

partial pressure of methane  = ?

Solution:

The total pressure of mixture is equal to the sum of their particles pressures;

 

   Partial pressure of methane  = 96.4kPa - (13.4kPa + 29.3kPa)

  Partial pressure of methane = 53.7kPa

Answer: 53.6

Explanation: I just took the test and got it right.
