$p_A$ and $p_B$ are the vapour pressures of pure liquid components $A$ and $B$ respectively of an ideal binary solution. If $x_A$ represents the mole fraction of component $A,$ the total pressure of the solution will be

  • A
    $p_B + x_A(p_B - p_A)$
  • B
    $p_B + x_A(p_A - p_B)$
  • C
    $p_A + x_A(p_B - p_A)$
  • D
    $p_A + x_A(p_A - p_B)$
