Liquid MM and liquid NN form an ideal solution. The vapour pressures of pure liquids MM and NN are 450 and 700 mmHg, respectively, at the same temperature. Then correct statement is
xM={x_M} = mole fraction of MM in solution;            xN=\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{x_N} = mole fraction of NN in solution;
yM={y_M} = mole fraction of MM in vapour phase;               yN=\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{y_N} = mole fraction of NN in vapour phase;
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
xMxN>yMyN\frac{{{x_M}}}{{{x_N}}} > \frac{{{y_M}}}{{{y_N}}}
Option A (xMxN>yMyN\frac{{{x_M}}}{{{x_N}}} > \frac{{{y_M}}}{{{y_N}}}) is correct because liquid N has a higher vapor pressure than liquid M, so it will have a higher mole fraction in the vapor phase relative to the liquid phase.
