Detailed Solution

Given data:
It is given to identify the mole fraction of CHCl3 in vapour form.
Explanation:
P0 =Vapor pressure = 200 mm of Hg Mass of solute (CH2Cl2)=8.5 g Mass of solvent (CHCl3)=11.95 g The mole fraction in solution phase is computed as follows: XCH2Cl2=(8.5/85)(8.5/85)+(11.95/119.5)=0.5XCHCl3=(11.95/119.5)(8.5/85)+(11.95/119.5)=0.5 The formula for mole fraction in vapor phase is: YCHCl3=P°·XCHCl3P°·XCHCl3+P°·XCH2Cl2=200×0.5200×0.5+415×0.5=0.325

Hence, the correct option is option (D) 0.325.
