Expert Solution
Step 1

Vapour pressure of a solution can be calculated by using Following formula -

P = X P0

Here , P is vapour pressure of solution

X is mole fraction of solvent

Pis vapour pressure of pure solvent

Now mole fraction of solvent is calculated by -

X = nsolvent / nsolute + nsolvent

Here, nsolvent = moles of solvent

nsolute  = moles of solute

Also , nsolvent  = mass of solute/molar mass

nsolvent = mass of solvent/molar mass
