    Total pressure = 759 mmHg

    Explanation:

    Given dа ta:

    Partial pressure of oxygen = 165 mmHg

    Partial pressure of nitrogen = 594 mmHg

    Total pressure = ?

    Solution:

    According to Dalton law of partial pressure,

    The total pressure inside container is equal to the sum of partial pressures of individual gases present in container.

    Mathematical expression:

    P (total) = P₁ + P₂ + P₃ + ... + Pₙ

    Total pressure = P (O₂) + P (N₂)

    Total pressure = 165 mmHg + 594 mmHg

    Total pressure = 759 mmHg
