Q. 3. Two liquids X and Y form an ideal solution. At 300 K, vapour pressure of the solution containing 1 mol of X and 3 mol of Y is 550 mmHg. At the same temperature, if 1 mol of Y is further added to this solution, vapour pressure of the solution increases by 10 mmHg. Vapour pressure (in mmHg) of X and Y in their pure states will be, respectively:

  1. 500 and 600

  2. 200 and 300

  3. 300 and 400

  4. 400 and 600

Sol:

Answer : (4)
