A sample of oxygen gas was collected via water displacement.

A sample of oxygen gas was collected via water displacement. Since the oxygen was collected via water displacement, the sample is saturated with water vapor. If the total pressure of the mixture at 26.4 °C is 795 torr, what is the partial pressure of oxygen? The vapor pressure of water at 26.4 °C is 25.81 mm Hg.
