detailed solution

Correct option is C

Amount of glucose, n2=m2M2=20g180gmol1=19mol; Amount of sucrose, n3=m3M3=34.2g342gmol1=110mol

Amount of water, n1=m1M1=108g18gmol1=6mol

Mole fraction of solutes in solution,

x=n2+n3n1+n2+n3=[(1/9)+(1/10)]mol6mol+(1/9)+(1/10)mol]=0.211mol6.211mol=0.034

Vapour pressure of solution. p1=x2p1=(0.034)(35mmHg)=1.19mmHg
