The correct option for the value of vapour pressure of a solution at 45∘C45^\circ C with benzene to octane in molar ratio 3:2 is: [At 45∘C45^\circ C vapour pressure of benzene is 280 mm Hg and that of octane is 420 mm Hg. Assume Ideal gas] 350 mm of Hg 160 mm of Hg 168 mm of Hg 336 mm of Hg

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 350 mm of Hg
  • B 160 mm of Hg
  • C 168 mm of Hg
  • D 336 mm of Hg

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Given : n C 6 H 6 : n C 8 H 18 = 3 : 2 So, _ C 6 H 6 = 3 5 , _ C 8 H 18 = 2 5 Total vapour pressure of solution, p s = p C 6 H 6 o _ C 6 H 6 + p C 8 H 18 o _ C 8 H 18 = 280 _ 3 5 + 420 _ 2 5 = 168 + 168 = 336 mm of Hg
