You need units on those three numbers.

What is the total mmHg pressure in of a gas mixture containing argon gas at 0.25atm , helium gas at 385mmHg , and nitrogen gas at 345torr. ? sorry i didn't relize i left them out.

To find the total pressure of a gas mixture, you need to sum up the partial pressures contributed by each component gas. The partial pressure of a gas is the pressure it would exert if it occupied the same volume on its own.

In this case, you have a gas mixture containing three gases: argon, helium, and nitrogen. The partial pressure of each gas is given as follows:

Argon gas: 0.25 atm
Helium gas: 385 atm
Nitrogen gas: 345 atm

To find the total pressure, you simply add up these partial pressures:

Total pressure = Partial pressure of argon + Partial pressure of helium + Partial pressure of nitrogen
Total pressure = 0.25 atm + 385 atm + 345 atm

Calculating the sum, we get:

Total pressure = 0.25 + 385 + 345 = 730.25 atm

Therefore, the total pressure of the gas mixture is 730.25 atm.
