At $300 \ K$,the vapor pressures of two pure liquids $A$ and $B$ are $150 \ mm \ Hg$ and $100 \ mm \ Hg$,respectively. If the mole fractions of $A$ and $B$ in the solution are equal,then the mole fraction of $B$ in the vapor phase at the same temperature is:

  • A
    $0.6$
  • B
    $0.5$
  • C
    $0.8$
  • D
    $0.4$

Assertion : If a liquid solute more volatile than the solvent is added to the solvent,the vapour pressure of the solution may increase i.e.,$p_s > p^o$.
Reason : In the presence of a more volatile liquid solute,only the solute will form the vapours and solvent will not.

According to Raoult's law,the relative lowering of vapour pressure of a solution of a non-volatile solute is equal to:

When a non-volatile solute is added to a pure solvent,the vapor pressure decreases by $11.5 \ torr$. If the mole fraction of the solute is $0.2$,what will be the vapor pressure of the pure solvent in $torr$?
