The mole fraction of pentane in the vapor is 0.291

Vapour pressure rises with temperature and is a measurement of a substance's propensity to transform into a gaseous or vapour state. The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the pressure exerted by its surroundings equals the vapour pressure present at the liquid's surface.

The number of moles of a particular component in the solution divided by the overall number of moles in the sample solution is known as the mole fraction.

Using the formula for vapour pressure,

vapour pressure = P^{}°_{hex} × X_{hex} + P^{}°_{pen} × X_{pen}

vapour pressure = 151 ×  (1-X_{pen}) + 425 × X_{pen}

240 = 151 - 151X_{pen} + 425X_{pen}

240 - 151 = -  151X_{pen} + 425 X_{pen}

89 = 274 X_{pen}

\frac{89}{274} = X_{pen}

0.291 = X_{pen}

Therefore,  the mole fraction of pentane in the vapor is 0.291

What factors do not affect nuclear reactions, but do affect chemical reaction
Fudgin [204]
Unlike nuclear reactions, nuclear reactions are not affected by changes in temperature,
pressure, of the presence of catalysts. Also nuclear reactions of given radioisotope cannot be slowed down, speeded up, or stopped.
