Benzene and toluene form nearly ideal solutuions. At `20^(@)C`, the vapour pressure of benzene is 75 torr and that of toulene is 22 torr. The partial vapour pressure of benzene at `20^(@)C` for a solution containing 78g of benzene and 46g of toluene in torr isA. 50B. 25C. 37.5D. 53.5

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Molar mass of `C_(6)H_(6)=78 g mol^(-1)`
Molar mass of `C_(6)H_(5)-CH_(3)=92 g mol^(-1)`
n(Benzene) = 78/78 = 1
n(Toluene) = 46/92 = 0.5
x(Benzene) = `(1)/(1+0.5)=(10)/(15)=(2)/(3)`
p(Benzene) = x (Benzene) `xx P^(@)` (Benzene)
`=(2)/(3)xx75 = 50` torr
