    Piso = 32.17 Torr

    Pprop = 5.079 Torr

    yprop = 0.1364

    yiso = 0.8636

    Explanation:

    From the question; we can opine that:

    The mole fraction of isopropanol in a mixture of isopropanol and propanol will be 1. The partial pressure of isopropanol will be its mole fraction multiplied by vapor pressure of isopropanol The partial pressure of propanol will be its mole fraction multiplied by vapor pressure of propanol In the vapor, the mole fraction of propanol will be its partial pressure divided by the sum of the two partial pressures

    NOW;

    When xprop = 0.243; xisopropanol will be 1 - 0.243 = 0.757

    P°iso = 45.2 Torr at 25 °C so

    Piso will be 45.2 * 0.757 = 32.17 Torr

    Pprop will be 20.9 * 0.243 = 5.079 Torr

    yprop = 5.079 / (5.079 + 32.17) = 0.1364

    yiso = 1-0.1364 = 0.8636
