Raoult's Law states that the vapor pressure of a solvent in a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent in that solution. This law is essential in understanding phase equilibria, particularly how mixtures behave when separated into different phases and how they stabilize under varying conditions. It helps in predicting how components interact in both liquid and gas phases and provides insight into the activity coefficients of components in mixtures.
congrats on reading the definition of Raoult's Law. now let's actually learn it.
