Consider a binary solution of two volatile liquid components 1 and 2. x1 and y1 are the mole fractions of component 1 in liquid and vapour phase, respectively. The slope and intercept of the linear plot of 1x1 vs 1y1 are given respectively as :
- P10P20, P10-P20P20
- P20P10, P20-P10P10
- P20P10, P10-P20P20
- P10P20, P20-P10P20
Answer
(4) P10P20, P20-P10P20
Solution
p1=x1p10=y1pT, pT=p20+x1(p10-p20)
⇒ 1y1= p20p10 1x1+ p10-p20p10
Make 1x1 the subject: 1x1= p10p20 1y1+ p20-p10p20
∴ slope = p10p20, intercept = p20-p10p20
Answer: (4)
