    16.9 kPa is the partial pressure or pressure produced by a mixture of gases having total pressure of 93.6 kPa.

    Explanation:

    Data given:

    mixture of hydrogen, helium. neon and argon gases with total pressure = 93.6 kPa

    partial pressure of helium, pHe = 15.4 kPa

    partial pressure of neon gas, pNe = 25.7 kPa

    partial pressure of Argon gas, pAr = 35.6 kPa

    partial pressure of hydrogen gas. pH = ?

    Here, Daltons law of partial pressure will be applied"

    Ptotal = pHe + pNe + pAr + pH

    Ptotal - pHe - pNe - pAr = pH

    93.6 - (15.4+25.7+35.6) = pH

    pH = 16.9 kPa

    pressure exerted by hydrogen gas individually is 16.6kPa.
