Yes

Explanation:

Partial pressure means when a gas is filled in a container, it exerts some pressure

If it is mixed with some other gas and filled in a container, it will exert the same pressure even in the mixture

Answer:
Partial pressure of a gas is the amount of pressure it exerts on the container when it’s in a solution with another solvent.

Explanation:

Okay so by Henry’s law,

P=Kh*x
Kh= Henry’s constant which is different for different gases at same temperature
x= mole fraction of the gas in solution
P= partial pressure of gas.

So by this, the more is the mole fraction of a gas, the more is the pressure exerted by it. Partial pressure is states how much of the TOTAL pressure is exerted by this gas.
Hope it helps !
