Consider an ideal vapour-liquid binary mixture, find the total pressure if the vapour pressure of A is 260 mmHg and the vapour pressure of B is 520 mmHg and the composition of A in mole fraction is 0.55.

Correct Answer: 377 mmHg
Total pressure = (vapour pressure of A * mole fraction) + vapour pressure of B*( 1- mole fraction) = 377 mmHg.
