Raoult's law is applicable to both ideal and non-ideal solutions. It states that the partial pressure of a component in a solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution.

Where P_i is the partial pressure of the component in the solution, x_i is the mole fraction of the component in the solution.

Henry's law is a special case of Raoult's law, which is applicable only to dilute solutions of gases. It states that the partial pressure of a gas in a solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution. However, Raoult's law is applicable to both gases and liquids, and is not limited to dilute solutions
