A mixture of 20.0 mol% benzene, 5.00 mol% toluene, and 75.0 mol% air is compressed isothermally at 70 degrees C until condensation first appears. What is the mole fraction of benzene in the condensate? You may assume that air is noncondensable (and thus its vapor pressure is large) and this system obeys Raoult's Law. Note: when solving Antoine's equation it is best to keep all sig figs through calculation and then truncate them at the end.
