The vapour pressure of two pure isomeric liquids X and Y are 200 torr and 100 torr respectively at a given temperature. Assuming a solution of these components to obey Raoults law, the mole fraction of component X in vapour phase in equilibrium with the solution containing equal amounts of X and Y, at the same temperature is :

At a certain temperature pure liquid A and liquid B have vapour pressure 10 and 37 torr respectively. For a certain ideal solution of A and B , the vapours in equilibrium with the liquid has the components A and B in the partial pressure ratio P_(A):P_(B) = 1:7 . The mole fraction of A in the solution are:

When an ideal binary solution is in equilibrium with its vapour, molar ratio of the two components in the solution and in the vapur phase is :

Vapor pressure of a solution of Volatile components and composition of vapor: Consider a solution containing 738 g of water and 253 g of ethanol (C_(2)H_(5)OH) at 323 K . At this temperature, the vapour pressure of pure ethanol is 0.292 atm and the vapor pressure of pure water is 0.122 atm . Calculate the vapour pressure of the solution and mole fraction of every component in vapour phase. Strategy: First calculate the moles and the mole fraction of each component in the liquid solution. Then apply Raoult's law to each of the two volatile components to calculate their partial pressures. The total vapour pressure is the sum of the partial vapour pressures of the components and the mole fraction of a components in a gaseous mixture equals the ratio of its partial pressure to the total pressure.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions : Raoult's law states that for a solution of volatile liquids, the partial vapour pressure of each component of the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction present in solution. Dalton's law of partial pressure states that the total pressure P_("total") over the solution phase in the container will be the sum of the partial pressures of the components of the solution and is given as: P_("total") = P_1 + P_2 Which of the following aqueous solutions should have the highest boiling point ?
