Solution

Vapour pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.

For solutions containing non-volatile solutes, Raoult's law may be stated as at a given temperature, the vapour pressure of a solution containing a non-volatile solute is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.
