Certain substances such as alcohols are able to dissolve fairly readily in both polar and nonpolar solvents. Which statements correctly explain this behavior?

A solution contains 25.0 g ethanol (C2H5OH; molar mass 46.07 g/mol) in 500. g H2O (molar mass 18.02 g/mol) at 23oC. If the vapor pressure of pure H2O at this temperature is 20.57 torr, What is the vapor pressure of the solution?
20.1 torr [Psoln = χsolvent x P°solvent. Since H2O is the solvent, we use χwater for this calculation. χwater = 27.728.3 = 0.979 Psoln = 0.979 x 20.57 = 20.1 torr]
