A solution of pentane and ethanol CH3CH2OH that is 50.% pentane by mass is boiling at 57.2°C. The vapor is collected and cooled until it condenses to form a new solution.
Calculate the percent by mass of pentane in the new solution. Here's some data you may need:
| normal boiling point | density | vapor pressure at
 57.2°C  | 
|
| pentane | 
 36.°C  | 
 0.63gmL  | 
 1439.torr  | 
| ethanol | 
 78.°C  | 
 0.79gmL  | 
 326.torr  | 
Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution and vapor above it are ideal.
