4. A solution of benzene and toluene at 25C and 760mmHg has atotal vapor pressure (Ptotal) of 71.08 torr (mmHg). Ifthe partial pressures of benzene (Pbenzene) and toluene(Ptoulene) are 60.86 torr and 122 torr respectively,what are the percentages of a. benzene; and b. toluene, inthe corresponding vapor above the liquid. Please show all thecalculations.
