Question

Pentane (C5H12) and hexane (C6H14) form an ideal solution. At 25oC the vapor pressures of pentane and hexane are 511 and 150 torr, respectively. A solution is prepared by mixing 25 mL pentane (density, 0.63 g/mL) with 45 mL hexane (density, 0.66 g/mL).

What is the vapor pressure of the resulting solution?

Ptotal =
torr
