At300 K, the vapour pressure of a solution containing1mole ofn-hexane and3moles ofn-heptane is550 mmofHg. At the same temperature, if one more mole ofn-heptane is added to this solution, the vapour pressure of the solution increases by10 mmofHg. What is the vapour pressure inmmHgofn- heptane in its pure state______?

Answer:
600.00
Solution:

Ptotal=Phexane.Xhexane+Pheptane.Xheptane

550=Phexane×14+Pheptane×34     ..(i)

After mixing 1 mole n-heptane

560=Phexane×15+Pheptane×45     .....(ii)

On solving eq. (i) and (ii)

Pheptane=600mm of Hg
