Use the formula that involves the mole fraction of the solvent and the vapor pressure of the pure solvent.\[ P_{solution} = P_{solvent} \cdot X_{solvent} \]Where:- \( P_{solution} \) is the vapor pressure of the solution- \( P_{solvent} \) is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent (ethanol here)- \( X_{solvent} \) is the mole fraction of the solvent (ethanol) in the solutionSteps:1. Calculate the moles of ethanol and estrogen.2. Determine the mole fraction of ethanol in the solution.3. Apply the formula to find the vapor pressure of the solution. Remember:- Moles of a substance = Mass / Molar Mass- Mole Fraction (X) = Moles of component / Total moles of all components in solution
