Oxygen gas was most likely absent from Earth's primitive atmosphere.  The current theory is that the Earth's early atmosphere was composed of mainly carbon dioxide and methane due to the high volcanic activity.  Cyanobacteria and their use of photosynthesis was what caused earth's atmosphere to become oxygen enriched.
I hope that helps.

A sample of nitrogen gas is collected over water at a temperature of 23.0 C. What is the pressure of the nitrogen gas if atmosph
Whitepunk [10]
We first consider the gases that will be present in that sample.
First, there will be nitrogen, as stated. Second, there will also be water in the form of water vapor. For this, we need the vapor pressure of water at 23.0 °C, which is about 21.0 mmHg. Now, the sum of the vapor pressures of the gases will be equivalent to the total pressure. So the pressure of nitrogen gas is:
785 - 21
= 764 mmHg
