As we learnt in

Rault's Law -

The total vapour pressure of binary mixture of miscible liquids be having ideally is given by

P_{T}= P_{A}^{0}x_{A}+P_{B}^{0}x_{B}

Where x_{A}  and  x_{B} are mole fraction of A and B in liquid phase.

 

 

- wherein

P_{A}^{0}  and P_{B}^{0} are vapour pressures of pure liquids.

 

 According to Raoult's law equimolar solutions of all substance in the same solvent will show equal value of colligative properties such as elevation in Boiling Point, depression in freezing point, osmotic pressure and relative lowering of vapour pressure.
