Which of the following plots represents an ideal binary mixture?

Options

A. Plot of `"P"_("total ")v//s" " 1//"X"_("B")` is linear (`"X"_("B")`= mole fraction of 'B' in liquid phase).
B. Plot of `"P"_("total ")v//s" " 1//"X"_("B")` is linear (`"Y"_("B")`= mole fraction of 'A' in vapour phase)
C. Plot of `1/("P"_("total"))v//s" Y"_("A")` is linear
D. Plot of `1/("P"_("total"))v//s" Y"_("B")` is non linear

Answer

C

Explanation

Plot of `1/("P"_("total"))" v"//"s"" Y"_("A")` is linear for an ideal binary mixture.
