2.7 is the vapor pressure of a water solution in which the mole fraction of HgCl2 is 0.163 at 25C.
Well vapor pressure also depends on the mole fraction of a substance. Vapor pressure= Mole fraction* Total pressure of the solution. If the Mole fraction of a volatile substance in the solution is decreased its vapor pressure increases. Thus the volatility of the substance barely plays the role. Of course, if the solution has no volatile substance there cannot be any vapor pressure in the container.
The vapor pressure decreases
1. Vapor pressure lowering: the decrease in vapor pressure with increasing the number of solute molecules in solution. 2. Boiling point elevation: the increase in boiling point with increasing number of solute molecules in solution. 3. Freezing point depression: the decrease in freezing point with increasing number of solute molecules in solution. 4. Osmotic pressure

A non-volatile solute affects increases osmotic pressure. This is a colligative property. There will be a higher osmotic pressure required to prevent the solvent from flowing into the solution because the solvent has a higher chemical potential without solute in it.
The solution's vapor pressure will be lower.

The vapor pressure decreases
A solution has a higher vapor pressure than a pure solvent. This is why salt water boils faster than pure water.
When you add a teaspoon of honey to water with vapor pressure, it will reduce the vapor pressure. The sugar in the honey leads to the pressure going down.
lower vapor pressure
when the vapor pressure is greater than 5 mm
1. Vapor pressure lowering: the decrease in vapor pressure with increasing the number of solute molecules in solution. 2. Boiling point elevation: the increase in boiling point with increasing number of solute molecules in solution. 3. Freezing point depression: the decrease in freezing point with increasing number of solute molecules in solution. 4. Osmotic pressure
