    Answer is 1.117 atm.

    Explanation;

    Partial pressure of a gas is the pressure of the gas on the container when the gas is alone.

    Here, there are 3 gases as methane, chlorine and carbon monoxide.

    Partial pressures are given as

    methane - 0.215 atm

    chlorine - 0.066 atm

    carbon monoxide - 0.836 atm

    Total pressure is the pressure on the container which is due to the whole mixture of gases.

    Total pressure = sum of the pressure of each gas

    = 0.215 atm + 0.066 atm + 0.836 atm

    = 1.117 atm
