RAULTS LAW

1) Two liquids X and Y on mixing form an ideal solution. At 30C, the vapour
phase of the solution containing 3 moles of X and 1 mole of Y is 550mm Hg.
But when 4 moles of X and 1 mole of Y are mixed, the vapour pressure of
the solution thus formed is 560mm Hg. What would be the vapour pressure
of pure X and pure Y at this temperature.
2) The vapour pressure of a pure liquid A is 40mm Hg at 310K. The vapour
pressure of this liquid in solution with liquid B is 32mm of Hg. Calculate the
mole fraction of A in the solution if the mixture obeys the Raults law.
3) Two liquids A and B on mixing form an ideal solution. Their vapour
pressures in the pure state are 200 and 100mm respectively. What will be
the mole fraction of B in the vapour phase in equilibrium with an equimolar
solution of two?
4) Ethylene dibromide and 1,2-dibromopropane form a series of ideal
solutions over the whole range of composition. At 850C, the vapour
pressures of these two liquids are 173 and 127torr respectively. What
would be the mole fraction of ethylene dibromide in a solution at 850C
equilibrated with 1:1 molar mixture in the vapour.
