What is the mole fraction of benzene in original solution

Reference no: EM13701516

Problem- The vapor pressure of benzene is 750. Torr and the vapor pressure of toluene is 300 torr at a certain temperature. You make a solution of benzene and toluene. You place this solution is a closed container and wait for the vapor to come into equilibrium with the solution. Next, you take some vapor and condensed the vapor all into liquid. You put this liquid (condensed vapor) into another closed container and wait for the vapor to come into equilibrium with the new liquid to come into equilibrium with the vapor phase. You then analyze this new vapor (using gas chromatograph) and find that the mole fraction of benzene in this vapor is 0.714. What is the mole fraction of benzene in the original solution, assuming the solution behalves ideally?

Please demonstrate work to illustrate me how to approach this! Thanks!
