By measuring the equilibrium between liquid and vapor phases of a solution at 30°C at 1.00 atm, it was found that xA = 0.220 when yA = 0.314. Calculate the activities and activity coefficients of both components in this solution on the Raoult's law basis. The vapor pressures of the pure components at this temperature are P*A = 0.720 atm and P*B = 0.909 atm.
