    Mole fraction O₂ = 452 mmHg / 780mmHg → 0.579

    Explanation:

    Mole fraction is defined as the quotient between Partial Pressure of a gas, in a mixture and the Total Pressure from the mixture

    Partial pressure of a gas / Total pressure

    Mole fraction O₂ = 452 mmHg / 780mmHg → 0.579

    Be careful, because mole fraction doesn't have units
