The vapour pressures of pure liquids $A$ and $B$ are $400$ and $600\, mm\, Hg$,respectively at $298\, K$. On mixing the two liquids,the sum of their initial volumes is equal to the volume of the final mixture. The mole fraction of liquid $B$ is $0.5$ in the mixture. The vapour pressure of the final solution,the mole fractions of components $A$ and $B$ in vapour phase,respectively are

  • A
    $500\, mm\, Hg, 0.4, 0.6$
  • B
    $500\, mm\, Hg, 0.5, 0.5$
  • C
    $450\, mm\, Hg, 0.5, 0.5$
  • D
    $450\, mm\, Hg, 0.4, 0.6$
