AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the composition of a solution of heptane and toluene at which the partial pressures of both components are equal. We will use Raoult's Law to achieve this. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Raoult's Law**: According to Raoult's Law, the partial pressure of a component in a solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component multiplied by its mole fraction in the solution. \[ P_A = P^0_A \cdot X_A ...
