Question:

The vapour pressure of pure liquids A and B are 450 and 700 mm Hg respectively, at 350 K . What is the composition of the liquid mixture if total vapour pressure is 600 mm Hg.

Options:

0.3,0.7

0.5, 0.5

0.4, 0.6

0.2, 0.8

Correct Answer:

0.4, 0.6

Explanation:

P=P0AXA + P0BXB

600=450x + 700(1-x)

600=450x + 700 - 700x

600-700=-250x

-100=-250x

x=0.4

1-x=0.6
