"The fugacity of a gas in a mixture is equal to the product of its mole fraction and its fugacity in the pure state at the total pressure of the mixture". This is__________________?

Correct answer: B. Called Lewis-Randall rule

  • A. The statement as per Gibbs-Helmholtz
  • B. Called Lewis-Randall rule
  • C. Henry's law
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The Lewis-Randall rule states that a component's fugacity in an ideal mixture equals its mole fraction multiplied by its pure-component fugacity at the mixture pressure. Henry's law instead describes a dilute solute whose fugacity is proportional to concentration through a Henry constant.
