**Problem:**Biphenyl, \( \text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{10} \), is a nonvolatile, nonionizing solute that is soluble in benzene, \( \text{C}_6\text{H}_6 \).At 25°C, the vapor pressure of pure benzene is 100.84 Torr. What is the vapor pressure of a solution made from dissolving 10.0 g of biphenyl in 29.4 g of benzene?**Solution:**\[ P_{\text{solution}} = \]**Torr***Explanation:*The problem involves calculating the vapor pressure of a solution using Raoult's Law, which states that the vapor pressure of a solvent in a solution is proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent. The nonvolatile solute decreases the vapor pressure of the solvent compared to the pure solvent.
