At a given temperature the vapor pressure of pure liquid diethyl ether and isopropyl alcohol are 730 torr and 310 torr, respectively. a solution prepared by mixing isopropyl alcohol and diethyl ether obeys raoult's law. at this temperature, what is the vapor pressure of diethyl ether over a solution in which its mole fraction is 0.270?

197.1 torr.

Explanation:

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
