    The total amount of moles inside the flask is

    n = 0.158 + 0.09 + 0.044 = 0.292 mole

    According to Boyle's Law, the total pressure of a mixture in a container does not depend on the identity of the gas and only on the amount of the number of moles. So, assuming the mixture behaves like an ideas gas:

    P = nRT/V = 0.292 (0.08206) (25+273) / (1.50)

    P = 4.76 atm
