    The vapour pressure of two liquids X and Y are 80 and 60 Torr respectively. The total vapour pressure of the ideal solution obtained by mixing 3 moles of X and 2 moles of Y would be

    A) 68 Torr           

    B) 140 Torr

    C) 48 Torr          

    D) 72 Torr

    E) 54 Torr

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Moles of X, \[{{n}_{x}}=\frac{3}{3+2}=\frac{3}{5}\] Moles of V, \[{{n}_{y}}=\frac{2}{3+2}=\frac{2}{5}\]                 \[{{p}_{T}}={{p}_{x}}{{n}_{x}}+{{p}_{y}}{{n}_{y}}\]                 \[=80\times \frac{3}{5}+60\times \frac{2}{5}\]                 \[=48+24=72\,Torr\]
