Liquids $A$ and $B$ form an ideal solution. If $X_A$ and $Y_A$ are the mole fractions of $A$ in the solution and in vapour phase in equilibrium,respectively,then (Given $P_A^{\circ} > P_B^{\circ}$):

  • A
    $\frac{Y_A}{X_A} = 1$
  • B
    $\frac{Y_A}{X_A} > 1$
  • C
    $\frac{Y_A}{X_A} < 1$
  • D
    $Y_A + X_A = 1$
