A mixture of 0.166 moles of C is reacted with 0.117 moles of O2 in a sealed, 10 L vessel at 500 K, producing a mixture of CO and CO2. The total pressure is 0.640 atm. What is the partial pressure of CO?
Please provide a step by step explanation with the answer so I can understand the process. I tried it but I didn't get it.

I tried working it out by finding the moles of CO and then dividing that over the total moles and multiplied by .640atm, but I didn't get the right answer.
Have you found a solution to this problem yet?
No, I haven't.
If we have a mixture of 0.33 moles of oxygen and 0.22 moles of carbon dioxide, the mole fraction of carbon dioxide is .
