Question:
At 25 °C the vapor pressure of pure benzene is 93.9 torr . A solution of a nonvolatile solute in benzene has a vapor pressure of 91.5 torr at the same temperature. What is the concentration of the solute, expressed as its mole fraction?
Strategy
Determine the change in the vapor pressure of benzene. Use the vapor pressure concentration relationship from Raoult’s law and solve for mole fraction.
