A solution is formed by the combination of two liquids such as dichloromethane and chloroform. The partial pressures of dichloromethane and.chloroform in solution are 285.5 and 62.4 ~mm Hg respectively. What is the total pressure of the solution?
Options
- A223.1 ~mm Hg
- B347.9 ~mm Hg
- C357.9 ~mm Hg
- D337.9 ~mm Hg
Correct answer
B. 347.9 ~mm Hg
Step-by-step solution
P _ total = x ₁ P ₁^ + x ₂ P ₂^ aligned & = P ₁+ P ₂=285.5+62.4 & =347.9 ~mm Hg . aligned (as chloroform and dichloromethane form an ideal solution)
