JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 -1. Solution and colligative properties

Vapour pressure of pure benzene is \(119\, torr\) and that of toluene is \(37.0\, torr\) at the same temperature. Mole fraction of toluene in vapour phase which is in equilibrium with a solution of benzene and toluene having a mole fraction of toluene \(0.50\), will be

  1. A \(0.137\)
  2. B \(0.237\)
  3. C \(0.435\)
  4. D \(0.205\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.237\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({P_A}\, = \,P_A^o\, \times \,{x_A}\, = \) total pressure \(\times y_A\) \({P_B}\, = \,P_B^o\, \times {x_B}\, = \) total pressure \(\times y_B\) where \(x\) and \(y\) represents mole fraction in liquid and vapour phase repsectively.…
