The hydrogen gas is collected by displacement of water at 35.0 °C at a total pressure of 748 torr. The vapor pressure of water at 35.0 °C is 42 torr. What is the partial pressure of H2 if 307.8 mL of gas is collected over water from this method?

The trick here is to not get distracted by the given volume of the hydrogen gas - water vapor mixture.
All you need to focus on is the total pressure of the gaseous mixture and the vapor pressure of water at that temperature.
The partial pressure of hydrogen can be calculated using Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, which tells you that the total pressure of a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas that's a part of that mixture.
706 torr
