Q. Two liquids $A$ and $B$ have, $P_{A}^{0}$ and $P_{B}^{0}=1:3$ at a certain temperature. Assume $A$ and $B$ form an ideal solution, and the ratio of mole of $A$ to $B$ in the liquid phase are $1:3$ , then mole fraction of A in vapour phase in equilibrium with the solution -

Solution:

$Pt=P_{A}^{0}x_{A}+P_{B}^{0}x_{B}=\frac{1}{4}P_{A}^{0}+\frac{3}{4}\times 3P_{A}^{0}$
$=\frac{10}{4}P_{A}^{0}=\frac{5}{2}P_{A}^{0}$
$P_{T}\cdot Y_{A}=P_{A}^{0}x_{A}\Rightarrow y_{A}=\frac{P_{A}^{0} x \frac{1}{4}}{\frac{5}{2} P_{A}^{0}}=\frac{1}{10}$
