The approximate partial pressure of oxygen at 1500 m is 0.18 atm.
Pressure of the air
From barometric pressure table;
1500 m = 85 kPa
1 kPa = 0.0099 atm
85 kPa = ?
= 0.84 atm
Oxygen percentage in air = 21%
Partial pressure of oxygen in air
P = 0.21 x P(total)
P = 0.21 x 0.84 atm
P = 0.18 atm
Thus, the approximate partial pressure of oxygen at 1500 m is 0.18 atm.
