Graph Between 1/YA Vs 1/XA:

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure P_T is given by:

 Partial pressure of the gas = Total pressure x Mole fraction

Where Y_A­ and Y_B is the mole fraction of the component A and B in gas phase respectively

According to Raoult's law:

On rearrangement of this equation we get a straight line equation:

Illustrative Examples:

Liquid A and B form ideal solution at temperature T. Mole fraction of A in liquid and vapour phase are 0.4 and 4/13 respectively, when total pressure is 130 torr. The vapour pressure (in torr) of A and B in pure state at temperature T are respectively.
