The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

At 20°C the vapor pressure of benzene (C_6H_6) is 75 torr, and that of toluene (C_7H_8) is 22 torr. Assume that benzene and toluene form an ideal solution.

What is the mole fraction of benzene in the solution that has a vapor pressure of 38 torr at 20°C? Express your answer using two significant figures.

<u>Answer:</u> The mole fraction of benzene is 0.302

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let the mole fraction of benzene be 'x' and that of toluene is '1-x'

To calculate the total pressure of the mixture of the gases, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

p_T=\sum_{i=1}^n(\chi_{i}\times p_i)

We are given:

Vapor pressure of benzene = 75 torr

Vapor pressure of toluene = 22 torr

Vapor pressure of solution = 38 torr

Putting values in above equation, we get:

38=[(75\times x)+(22\times (1-x))]\\\\x=0.30

Hence, the mole fraction of benzene is 0.30

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Mountain ranges are formed by a variety of geological processes, but most of the significant ones on Earth are the result of plate tectonics. Mountain ranges are also found on many planetary mass objects in the Solar System and are likely a feature of most terrestrial planets.

All of the questions here are pertaining to the colligative properties of a solution and the preparation of solutions. Maybe, it would be best if you understand the equations to be used in order to answer these questions.<span>
Freezing point depression or Boiling point elevation:

</span><span>ΔT = -K (m) (i)

</span>ΔT is the change in the freezing point or the boiling point not the freezing point/boiling point. Therefore, it should be added to the original value of the property of the solvent. 
<span>
K is a constant called the molal freezing point depression constant and for the boiling point is the boiling point elevation constant. It is a property of the solvent. 
</span><span>
m is the concentration of the solute in the solvent in terms of molality or kg solute/kg solvent. 
</span><span>
i is the vant hoff factor which will represent the number of ions which the solute dissociates when in solution.</span>
