The vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride, CCI4, is 0.354 atm, and the vapor pressure of chloroform, CHCI, is 0.526 atm at 316 K. A solution is prepared from equal masses of these two compounds at this temperature. Calculate the mole fraction of the chloroform in the vapor above the solution. If the vapor above the original solu- tion is condensed and isolated into a separate flask, what will the vapor pressure of chloroform be above this new solution?

Question
The vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride, CCI4, is 0.354 atm, and
the vapor pressure of chloroform, CHCI, is 0.526 atm at 316 K. A
solution is prepared from equal masses of these two compounds at
this temperature. Calculate the mole fraction of the chloroform in
the vapor above the solution. If the vapor above the original solu-
tion is condensed and isolated into a separate flask, what will the
vapor pressure of chloroform be above this new solution?
