Q: If the vapor pressure of pure solvent is 100 mmHg, and the vapor pressure of the solution is 80 mmHg, what is the mole fraction of the solute? (2022)
Solution: Using Raoult's Law: P_solution = X_solvent * P_solvent. X_solvent = P_solution / P_solvent = 80/100 = 0.8, thus X_solute = 1 - X_solvent = 0.2.
