Two substance A and B forming ideal solutions have PA o : PB o = 1 : 2 and mole fractions in liquid phase as XA : XB = 1 : 2, then mole fraction of A in vapour phase will be 
a) 0.33
b) 0.25
c) 0.52
d) 0.2 
Answer is d please explain how 

Dear Student,

The computation are expressed below,

PAo=1,  PBo=2XA=1,  XB=2Ptotal =PA+PB=PAoXA+PBoXB= 1(1)+2(2) =5by Daltons law,YA=PAoPtotal=15=0.2Hence answer is Option (D) 0.2
Regards.
