Interpretation:
The partial pressure of each component in equilibrium at
Concept Introduction:
According to Raoult’s law, in an ideal solution of two volatile liquids, the total vapor pressure of the solution is the sum of individual vapor pressure.
Where,
The equation
Answer to Problem 16.54P
The partial pressures of
The composition of vapor phase is
Explanation of Solution
Given that, the mole fraction of
The partial pressure of each component can be calculated as given below.
The total vapor pressure can be calculated as given below.
The pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas. Hence, the mole fraction of each component in the vapor can be calculated as given below.
For
For isopropanol:
Therefore, the partial pressures of
