Calculate the vapour pressure of pure volatile liquid $A$ at a given temperature if the mole fraction and vapour pressure of pure volatile liquid $B$ are $0.4$ and $900 \ mm \ Hg$ respectively,given that the total vapour pressure of the solution is $600 \ mm \ Hg$. (in $mm \ Hg$)

At $300 \ K$,the vapour pressure of a solution containing $1 \ mole$ of $n-hexane$ and $3 \ moles$ of $n-heptane$ is $550 \ mm \ Hg$. At the same temperature,if one more mole of $n-heptane$ is added to this solution,the vapour pressure of the solution increases by $10 \ mm \ Hg$. What is the vapour pressure in $mm \ Hg$ of $n-heptane$ in its pure state?
