a

Vapour pressure of X in pure state is greater than that of Y in pure state at same
temperature

b

At point Z, the mole fraction of X in the vapour phase, which is in equilibrium with the
solution is 0.6

c

Vapour pressure of solution at point Z is 480mm of Hg

d

Attractive intermolecular interaction between X-X in pure liquid X and Y-Y in pure
liquid Y is same

answer is B, D.

Detailed Solution

At point Z, mole fraction of X and mole fractions of Y in vapour phase is 0.5. From
the graph, Px0>Py0 so intermolecular force of interaction of X-X in pure liquid is
less than Y-Y. PT=240+240=480mm,  at point Z.
