Question:

A mixture contains 15.0 g hexane (C6H14) and 20.0 g heptane (C7H16). At 40 °C, the vapor pressure of hexane is 278 torr and that of heptane is 92.3 torr. Assume that this is an ideal solution.

(a) What is the mole fraction of each of these substances in the liquid phase?

(b) What are the vapor pressures of hexane and of heptane above the solution?

(c) Find the mole fraction of each substance in the vapor phase.
