Question

PA and PB are the vapour pressure of pure liquid components. A and B, respectively of an ideal binary solution. If xA represents the mole fraction of component A, the total pressure of the solution will be

Options

A.pB + xA (pA - pB)
B.pA + xA (pB - pA)
C.pA + xA (pA - pB)
D.pB + xA (pB - pA)

Solution


PTotal =      pA . xA + pB . xB
                   xB + xA = 1
                   xB = 1 - xA
PTotal =      pA . xA + pB(1 - xB)
