In Binary ideal solution forms by liquid A and B, at constant temperature, mole-fraction of liquid A in vapour state is 0.4 and its partial vapour pressure is 400 mm, then what will be the partial vapour pressure of B ?
$ Y_A = 0.4 and P_A = 400 mm $ $ P_B = 1000 - 400 = 600 mm $ $ P_A = P_{Total} \times Y_A $ $ \therefore 400 = P \times 0.4 $ $ \therefore P_{Total} = 1000 mm $
