B. 49 tort
C. 0.30 torr
D. 106 torr
 Table sugar granules were dissolved in a glass of water. The solid sugar granules have
no measurable vapor pressure, making water as the contributor to the entire vapor pressure
of the resulting solution. If sugar was added to the glass of water until the water makes up a
mole fraction of 0.75 in the solution, what is the total vapor pressure of the solution? Given
the following: vapor pressure of water at 25°C is 23.8 torr.
A. 23.8 torr
B. 5.95 torr
C. 29.75 torr
D. 17.9 tor
