Raoult’s law states that the partial vapor pression of each component in an ideal mixture of liquids is equal to the pression de vapeur of the pure component multiplied by its mole fraction in the liquid mixture. The governing formula is [latex]P_i = P_i^* x_i[/latex], where [latex]P_i[/latex] is the component’s partial pressure, [latex]P_i^*[/latex] is its pure vapor pressure, and [latex]x_i[/latex] is its mole fraction.
