This calculator helps you determine the vapor pressure of a solution using Raoult's Law. Ideal for students and professionals in the field of chemistry.
Vapor Pressure: 0 kPa
All calculations are based on standard chemistry formulas and principles. For details, refer to authoritative textbooks and scientific publications.
Raoult's Law can be expressed as:
P = P0 × X
For a solution with a pure component vapor pressure of 42.2 kPa and a mole fraction of 0.5, the vapor pressure is calculated as follows:
P = 42.2 × 0.5 = 21.1 kPa
Raoult's Law states that the partial vapor pressure of each component in a solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component multiplied by its mole fraction in the solution.
The mole fraction is calculated by dividing the moles of the component by the total moles of all components in the solution.
Raoult's Law is ideally applicable to ideal solutions. Deviations can occur in non-ideal solutions.
