Benzene and toluene form an ideal solution. At 25 oC, the vapor pressure of pure benzene is 100 torr, and the vapor pressure of pure toluene is 30.0 torr. A solution is prepared of 1.0 mol benzene and 2.0 mol toluene. Some of the solution evaporates in a closed system. What is the mole fraction of benzene in the vapor?
A. 0.33
B. 0.43
C. 0.53
D. 0.63
E. 0.73
total no of moles = no of moles of benzene + no of moles of toulene
= 1+2 = 3
mole fraction of benzene = no of moles of benzen/total no of moles
1/1+2 = 1/3 = 0.33
mole fraction of toulene = 2/1+2 = 2/3 = 0.66
A. 0.33 >>>>>answer
