The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will break it down into the required parts step by step. ### Given Data: - Vapor pressure of pure liquid A, \( P^0_A = 300 \, \text{torr} \) - Vapor pressure of pure liquid B, \( P^0_B = 800 \, \text{torr} \) - Mole fraction of A in vapor phase, \( y_A = 0.25 \) - Mole fraction of B in vapor phase, \( y_B = 1 - y_A = 0.75 \) ### (a) Composition of the first drop of the condensate (Mole fraction of A in liquid phase, \( x_A \)): Using Raoult's Law, the total pressure \( P_{total} \) can be calculated as follows: \[ \frac{1}{P_{total}} = \frac{y_A}{P^0_A} + \frac{y_B}{P^0_B} \] Substituting the values: \[ \frac{1}{P_{total}} = \frac{0.25}{300} + \frac{0.75}{800} \] Calculating the right-hand side: \[ \frac{1}{P_{total}} = \frac{0.25}{300} + \frac{0.75}{800} = \frac{0.0008333}{1} + \frac{0.0009375}{1} = 0.0017708 \] Now, calculating \( P_{total} \): \[ P_{total} = \frac{1}{0.0017708} \approx 564.7 \, \text{torr} \] Now, we can use the total pressure to find the mole fraction of A in the liquid phase \( x_A \): Using the equation: \[ P_{total} = x_A P^0_A + x_B P^0_B \] Where \( x_B = 1 - x_A \): \[ 564.7 = x_A \cdot 300 + (1 - x_A) \cdot 800 \] Expanding and rearranging gives: \[ 564.7 = 300x_A + 800 - 800x_A \] \[ 564.7 = 800 - 500x_A \] \[ 500x_A = 800 - 564.7 \] \[ 500x_A = 235.3 \] \[ x_A = \frac{235.3}{500} \approx 0.4706 \] Thus, the composition of the first drop of the condensate is: \[ \boxed{0.47} \] ### (b) Total pressure when this drop is formed: From the calculation above, we have already found: \[ \boxed{564.7 \, \text{torr}} \] ### (c) Composition of the solution whose normal boiling point is T: At the normal boiling point, the total pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure (760 torr): Using the equation: \[ 760 = x_A P^0_A + x_B P^0_B \] Substituting \( x_B = 1 - x_A \): \[ 760 = x_A \cdot 300 + (1 - x_A) \cdot 800 \] Expanding and rearranging gives: \[ 760 = 300x_A + 800 - 800x_A \] \[ 760 = 800 - 500x_A \] \[ 500x_A = 800 - 760 \] \[ 500x_A = 40 \] \[ x_A = \frac{40}{500} = 0.08 \] Thus, the composition of the solution at normal boiling point is: \[ \boxed{0.08} \] ### (d) Pressure when only the last bubble of vapor remains: When only the last bubble of vapor remains, the composition of the vapor is the same as the composition of the liquid. Therefore: Using the previously calculated mole fractions: \[ x_A = 0.25 \quad \text{and} \quad x_B = 0.75 \] Calculating the total pressure: \[ P_{total} = x_A P^0_A + x_B P^0_B \] \[ P_{total} = 0.25 \cdot 300 + 0.75 \cdot 800 \] \[ P_{total} = 75 + 600 = 675 \, \text{torr} \] Thus, the pressure when only the last bubble of vapor remains is: \[ \boxed{675 \, \text{torr}} \] ### (e) Composition of the last bubble: The composition of the last bubble is the same as the composition of the liquid at that point: Using the previously calculated values: \[ x_A = 0.11 \quad \text{and} \quad x_B = 1 - x_A = 0.89 \] Thus, the composition of the last bubble is: \[ \boxed{0.11} \]
