At $300 \ K$,the vapour pressure of a pure liquid $A$ is $70 \ mm \ Hg$. It forms an ideal solution with another liquid $B$. The mole fraction of $B$ in the solution is $0.2$ and the total vapour pressure of the solution is $84 \ mm \ Hg$ at the same temperature. What is the vapour pressure (in $mm \ Hg$) of pure liquid $B$ at $300 \ K$?

  • A
    $140$
  • B
    $70$
  • C
    $280$
  • D

Which statement about the composition of vapour over an ideal $1:1$ molar mixture of benzene and toluene is correct? Assume the temperature is constant at $25\,^{\circ}C$. Vapour pressure data $(25\,^{\circ}C)$:
Benzene: $75\, mm\, Hg$
Toluene: $22\, mm\, Hg$

The formation of a binary solution is considered as follows:
$(1)$ Pure solvent enthalpy $\Delta H_1$ (separated)
$(2)$ Pure solute enthalpy $\Delta H_2$ (separated)
$(3)$ Pure solvent + Pure solute $\to$ Solution $\to$ Enthalpy $\Delta H_3$
If $......$ then the resulting solution is ideal.

Two liquids $x$ and $y$ form an ideal solution. At $300 \ K$,the vapor pressure of a solution containing $1 \ mol$ of $x$ and $3 \ mol$ of $y$ is $550 \ mm \ Hg$. At the same temperature,if $1 \ mol$ of $y$ is added to the solution,the vapor pressure increases by $10 \ mm \ Hg$. The vapor pressures of pure $x$ and $y$ are respectively:

An example of a near-ideal solution is:

If vapour pressures of pure liquids $A$ and $B$ are $300$ and $800 \, torr$ respectively at $25 \, ^{\circ}C$. When these two liquids are mixed at this temperature to form a solution in which mole percentage of $B$ is $92$,then the total vapour pressure is observed to be $0.95 \, atm$. Which of the following is true for this solution?
