Which of the following is a consequence of Raoult's Law in a binary solution?
Correct Answer: Total vapor pressure is the sum of partial pressures.
- Step 1: Understand that a binary solution consists of two components (let's call them A and B).
- Step 2: Know that Raoult's Law states that the vapor pressure of each component in the solution is proportional to its mole fraction in the solution.
- Step 3: Identify the partial vapor pressure of component A (P_A) and component B (P_B).
- Step 4: Calculate the total vapor pressure (P_total) of the solution by adding the partial pressures: P_total = P_A + P_B.
- Step 5: Remember that the total vapor pressure is influenced by the amount of each component present in the solution.
