Question: In a solution of volatile components A and B, if the vapor pressure of A is 80 mmHg and that of B is 20 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure?
Options:
Correct Answer: 100 mmHg
Solution:
The total vapor pressure of a solution is the sum of the partial vapor pressures of its components: 80 mmHg + 20 mmHg = 100 mmHg.
