Answer #1

Ans-

Pvap = Ptotal and just looked up that corresponding pressure in the charts to find the dew point as 76.4 degree celsius. .

Pvap50C = Ptotal50C

Assuming that the volume of the condensate is negligible compared to the 4L total volume, you now have 4L vapor at the newly found pressure Ptotal50C = Pvap50C.
Assuming we can treat the water vapor as an ideal gas (n = PV/RT), the moles of vapor are:
ninitial = (0.4atm)(4L)/[R(273+90)]
nfinal = (Pvap50C)(4L)/[R(273+50)]
and the fraction of vapor remaining as vapor would be
nfinal/ninitial = (Pvap50C)(273+90)/[(0.4atm)(273+50)]

So the fraction condensed would be 1 minus that.
