Consider a binary solution of two volatile liquid components $1$ and $2$. $x_1$ and $y_1$ are the mole fractions of component $1$ in liquid and vapour phase,respectively. The slope and intercept of the linear plot of $\frac{1}{x_1}$ vs $\frac{1}{y_1}$ are given respectively as :

  • A
    $\frac{P_1^0}{P_2^0}, \frac{P_2^0-P_1^0}{P_2^0}$
  • B
    $\frac{P_2^0}{P_1^0}, \frac{P_1^0-P_2^0}{P_2^0}$
  • C
    $\frac{P_1^0}{P_2^0}, \frac{P_1^0-P_2^0}{P_2^0}$
  • D
    $\frac{P_2^0}{P_1^0}, \frac{P_2^0-P_1^0}{P_2^0}$
