Question: Hexane, C 6 H 14 , and cyclohexane, C 6 H 12 , form an ideal solution. The vapor pressure of hexane is 151 Torr

Hexane, C6H14, and cyclohexane, C6H12, form an ideal solution. The vapor pressure of hexane is 151 Torr and that of cyclohexane is 98 Torr at 25.0°C. Calculate the total vapor pressure of each of the following solutions and the mole fraction of each substance in the vapor phase above those solutions at 25°C:

(a) 0.25 mol C6H14 mixed with 0.65 mol C6H12;

(b) 10.0 g of hexane mixed with 10.0 g of cyclohexane.
