The answer is true. I know this because it almost happened to me.
Answer:
y1 = 0.3162
y2 = 0.6838
Explanation:
ok let us begin,
first we would be defining the parameters;
at 25°C;
1-propanol P1° = 20.90 Torr
2-propanol P2° = 45.2 Torr
From Raoults law:
P(1-propanol) = P⁰ × X(1-propanol)
P(1-propanol) = 20.9 torr × 0.45 = 9.405
P(1-propanol) = 9.405 torr
Also P(2-propanol) = P⁰ × X(2-propanol)
P(2-propanol) = 45.2 torr × 0.45
P(2-propanol) = 20.34 torr
but the total pressure = sum of individual pressures
total pressure = 9.405 + 20.34
total pressure = 29.745 torr
given that y1 and y2 represent the mole fraction of each in the vapor phase
y1 = P1 / total pressure
y1 = 9.405/29.745
y1 = 0.3162
Since y1 + y2 = 1
y2 = 1 - y1
∴ y2 = 1 - 0.3162
y2 = 0.6838
cheers, i hope this helps.

6.8x10^5? Scientific notation
Answer:
It will lead to overestimation of the percent recovery
Explanation:
The percent recovery refers to the percentage of the pure compound recovered after a chemical process. It is a ratio of the pure compound recovered to the original substance multiplied by 100%.
If the sample was incompletely dried and the recrystallization solvent is still present, the percent recovery will be overestimated and we will have a value that is greater than the accurate percent recovery due to solvent impurities present.
