Question:
Limonene (MW = 136 g/mol) is a pleasant smelling liquid found in lemon and orange peels. The boiling point of limonene is 175{eq}^o {/eq}C, but it co-distills with water at 97.5{eq}^o {/eq}C. If the vapour pressure of water at 97.5{eq}^o {/eq}C is 690 mmHg, what percent (by mass) of the steam-distillate is limonene? (Assuming that the distillation is occurring at 760 mmHg)
Vapour Pressure
The pressure exerted by a liquid on another liquid surface is called as vapour pressure. The vapour pressure depends upon the temperature, which means an increase in temperature increases the vapour pressure.
