Select the figure in which the partial pressure of A is greater.

Wrong. The sample with the highest number of molecules of A will have greater partial pressure of A. This one is not that case.
Wrong. The sample with the highest number of molecules of A will have greater partial pressure of A. This one is not that case
Wrong. The sample with the biggest number of molecules of A will have greater partial pressure of A. This one is not that case
Right. In this figure the number of A molecules is the greatest of all. Therefore the partial pressure of A will be the largest.
