This question concerns gas partial pressures and seems to be a contradiction of an earlier topic. Previously, on pg. 20 of Gen Chem II, it says:
Ptot=Sum (Pa + Pb + Pc) (the total pressure is the sum of the individual pressures).
But in the explanation for #33 on pg. 103, it says the total pressure is found by averaging the vapor pressure of the two present compounds, pure methanol and pure ethanol, both at 27 deg. celcius.
