At $80^o C$,the vapor pressure of pure liquid $A$ is $520 \ mm \ Hg$ and that of pure liquid $B$ is $1000 \ mm \ Hg$. If a mixture of $A$ and $B$ boils at $80^o C$ and $1 \ atm$ pressure,the mole percentage of $A$ in the mixture is ........... $(1 \ atm = 760 \ mm \ Hg)$.

The solution from the following with the highest depression in freezing point (lowest freezing point) is:

$2.5 \ g$ of a non-volatile,non-electrolyte is dissolved in $100 \ g$ of water at $25^{\circ} C$. The solution showed a boiling point elevation by $2^{\circ} C$. Assuming the solute concentration is negligible with respect to the solvent concentration,the vapour pressure of the resulting aqueous solution is . . . . . . $mm$ of $Hg$ (nearest integer).
