Which of the following statements about the composition of the vapour over an ideal $1:1$ molar mixture of benzene and toluene is correct? Assume that the temperature is constant at $25\ ^oC$. (Given,vapour pressure data at $25\ ^oC$,benzene $= 12.8\ kPa,$ toluene $= 3.85\ kPa$)

  • A
    The vapour will contain equal amounts of benzene and toluene.
  • B
    Not enough information is given to make a prediction.
  • C
    The vapour will contain a higher percentage of benzene.
  • D
    The vapour will contain a higher percentage of toluene.
