The vapour pressures of two volatile liquids A and B at 25°C are 50 Torr and 100 Torr, respectively. If the liquid mixture, contains 0.3 mole fraction of A, then the mole fraction of liquid B in the vapour phase is \(\frac {x}{17}\). The value of x is _____.
Correct Answer: 14
Solution and Explanation
\(P_T = P^0_A . x_A + P^0_B . x_B\)
\(PT= 50 × 0.3 + 100 × 0.7\)
\(= 85\) mm Hg
\(y_B = \frac {70}{85} = \frac {x}{17}\)
\(\frac {x}{17} = 14\)
So, the answer is \(14\).

Solutions
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.
For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.
Types of Solutions:
The solutions can be classified into three types:
- Solid Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Solid-state.
- Liquid Solutions- In these solutions, the solvent is in a Liquid state.
- Gaseous Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Gaseous state.
On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:
- Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
- Saturated Solution- A solution in which no solute can be dissolved after reaching a certain amount of temperature is known as an unsaturated saturated solution.
- Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
