At 20°C the vapor pressure of benzene (C6H6) is 75 torr, and that of toluene (C7H8) is 22 torr. Assume that benzene and toluene

form an ideal solution. What is the composition in mole fractions of a solution that has a vapor pressure of 40. torr at 20°C?

Answer: The mole fraction of benzene will be 0.34 and mole fraction of toluene is 0.66

Explanation:

According to Raoult's law, the vapor pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component multiplied by the vapor pressure of that component in the pure state.

p_1=x_1p_1^0 and p_2=x_2P_2^0

where, x = mole fraction in solution

p^0 = pressure in the pure state

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_1+p_2\\p_{total}=x_{benzene}p_{benzene}^0+x_{toluene}P_{toluene}^0

x_{benzene}=x,

x_{toluene}=1-x_{benzene}=1-x,

p_{benzene}^0=75torr

p_{toluene}^0=22torr

p_{total}=40torr

40=x\times 75+(1-x)\times 22

x=0.34

Thus (1-x0 = (1-0.34)=0.66

Thus the mole fraction of benzene will be 0.34 and that of toluene is 0.66

1. Compare the direction of the currents in the North Pacific Ocean with those of the South Pacific Ocean. How are they alike an
katrin [286]

1. The currents in North Pacific gyre rotate more or less clockwise while those of South Pacific rotate counter-clockwise. This is mainly due to the Coriolis effect brought about by the rotation of the earth. Currents above the equator are deflected from west to east while those in the south, east to west.



2. Winds are the main driver of ocean currents because they cause frictional drag on the surface of the oceans in the direction in which the blow. These winds also cause Ekman spirals that are 90 degrees right to the wind direction in the Northern hemisphere and 90 degrees left to the winds in the southern hemisphere.
