JEE Advanced Chemistry Question (2020) — Solution

Question

Liquids A and B form ideal solution for all compositions of A and B at 25 ∘ C . Two such solutions with 0 . 25 and 0 . 50 mole fractions of A have the total vapor pressures of 0 . 3 and 0 . 4 bar, respectively. What is the vapor pressure of pure liquid B in bar?

Options

  1. A. A
  2. B. B
  3. C. C
  4. D. D

Answer

A. A

Step-by-step solution

P Total  = P A o X A + P B o X B ( i )   0 .3 = ( P A o ) 1 4 + ( P B o ) 3 4 P A ∘ + P B ∘ = 1 . 2 ( ii )   0 .4 = ( P A o ) 1 2 + ( P B o ) 1 2 P A ∘ + P B ∘ = 0 . 8 From equation (1) and equation (2) P B o = 0 .2   bar  and  P A o = 0 .6   bar
