The correct answer is: 0.325
mole of CH 2 C l 2 in liquid phase= 8.5 85 =.1

mole of CHCl 3 in liquid phase= 11.95 119.5 =.1

mole fraction of CH 2 Cl 2 in liquid phase= .1 .2 = 1 2

mole fraction of CHCl 3 in liquid phase= .1 .2 = 1 2

P T = X C H 2 C l 2 × vapour pressure C H 2 C l 2 + X CHC l 3 × vapour pressure CHC l 3

=415× 1 2 +200× 1 2 =307.5

P T ( X A ) VP = ( X A ) LP ×  Vapour pressure of CHCl 3

307.5× ( X CHC l 3 ) VP =200× 1 2

X CHC l 3 = 100 307.5 =.325
