If two substances A and B have \(P^o_A: P^o_B = 1 : 2\) and have mole fraction in the ratio \(1:2\), then mole fraction of A in vapours is:

  1. A 0.33
  2. B 0.2
  3. C 0.25
  4. D 0.52
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 0.2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x_A = 1/3, x_B = 2/3\) \(P^o_A = P, P^o_B = 2P\) \(y_A = \frac{x_A P^o_A}{x_A P^o_A + x_B P^o_B} = \frac{(1/3)P}{(1/3)P + (2/3)(2P)}\) \(y_A = \frac{P/3}{P/3 + 4P/3} = \frac{P/3}{5P/3} = 1/5 = 0.2\)
