Choose the correct statement with respect to the vapour pressure of a liquid among the following:

The vapour pressure of pure $CCl_4$ (molar mass $= 154 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) and $SnCl_4$ (molar mass $= 170 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) at $25^{\circ} C$ are $115.0 \ torr$ and $238.0 \ torr$ respectively. Assuming ideal behaviour, calculate the total approximate vapour pressure in $torr$ of a solution containing $10 \ g$ of $CCl_4$ and $15 \ g$ of $SnCl_4$.

If $P_0$ and $P_s$ are the vapour pressures of the solvent and its solution respectively,and $N_1$ and $N_2$ are the mole fractions of the solvent and solute respectively,then which of the following is correct?
