Question
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration lists
dichloromethane (CH₂Cl₂) and carbon
tetrachloride (CCI) among the many
chlorinated organic compounds that are
carcinogenic. Consider a solution of 1.50 mol
CH₂Cl2 and 1.00 mol of CCl4 at 23.5°C where
the vapour pressure of pure dichloromethane
and carbon tetrachloride are 0.46 atm and 0.16
atm respectively.
a) Calculate the mole fraction of each
component in the solution.
Mole fraction of CH₂Cl₂
Mole fraction of CCl4
b) What is the partial vapour pressure of
CH₂Cl2 above the mixture?
Partial vapour pressure of CH₂Cl₂ above
mixture
c) What is the partial vapour pressure of
CCl4 above the mixture?
Partial vapour pressure of CCl4 above mixture
