Question
At an unknown temperature, a solution made of \(5.3400 \times 10^0\) g of a non-volatile solute dissolved in 100.0 g of water has a vapor pressure of \(5.70 \times 10^1\) mm Hg. What is the vapor pressure of pure water (in mm Hg) at this unknown temperature? The molar mass of the solute is \(5.030 \times 10^1\) g/mol.

**Instructions:**

- Enter your answer in scientific notation with 3 significant figures. Do not include any units in your answer.
- Do not round any intermediate calculations.

**Note:** Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.

**Problem Statement:**

A solution is made of two volatile solutes: Chemical A (with a pure vapor pressure of 80.0 mm Hg) and Chemical B (with a pure vapor pressure of 100.0 mm Hg). The solution has a total vapor pressure of \(9.66 \times 10^1\) mm Hg.

If the solution is known to be made from 3.00 mol of A, how many moles of B must there be in the solution?

**Hints and Instructions:**

- **Total Pressure:** The total pressure is the sum of each chemical's partial pressure: \(P_t = P_A + P_B\).
  
- **Partial Pressure Formula:** Use \(P_A = X_A \cdot P_A^\circ\) for both the partial pressure of chemicals A and B.

- **Answer Instructions:** Enter your answer in scientific notation with 3 significant figures. Do not include any units in your answer.

- Do not round any intermediate calculations.
