This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

option (iii) 8 * 104  Nm-2 

Partial pressure of oxygen, Po2= Xo2   * Ptotal

Mole fraction of O2= M o l e o f o x y g e n M o l e s o f o x y g e n + M o l e s o f h y d r o g e n

= 4 4 + 1 = 4 5

Po2= 4 5 * 1 = 4 5  (?Ptotal = 1 atm)

1 atm =  1.1034 * 105 Nm-2 or Pa

Partial pressure of dioxygen = 0.8 *105 = 8*10Nm-2
