Why does vapour pressure of a liquid decrease with addition of a non-volatile solid solute?

Answer»

We know that the vapour pressure of the solvent above a solution containing a non-volatile solute (i.e., a solute that doesn't have a vapour pressure of its own) is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent in the solution. So, the vapour pressure of a liquid decrease with addition of non volatile
