Answer:
Mass of heptane = 102g
Vapor pressure of heptane = 454mmHg
Molar mass of heptane = 100.21
No of mole of heptane = mass/molar mass = 102/100.21
No of mole of heptane = 1.0179
Therefore the partial pressure of heptane = no of mole heptane *Vapor pressure of heptane
Partial pressure of heptane = 1.0179*454mmHg
Partial pressure of heptane = 462.1096 = 462mmHg
the partial pressure of heptane vapor above this solution = 462mmHg
This works because it demonstrates that as volume increases, pressure decreases (inverse relationship)
