Question
State Raoult's law for the solution containing volatile components. What is the similarity between Raoult's law and Henry's law?
✓
Answer
For the solution containing volatile components, the partial vapour pressure of each component is directly proportional to its mole fraction. In both cases, p ∝ x/ Henry’s Law is a special case of Raoults Law.
