Interpretation:
The partial pressures of the components A and B, above the condensed liquid at
Concept introduction:
The moles are calculated as follows:
Mole fraction can be expressed as follows:
The partial pressure of the components can be calculated using the expression as follows:
Here,
The relation of vapour and the condensed state will be as follows:
Answer to Problem 4SEPP
Solution: Option (c).
Explanation of Solution
Reasons for the correct option:
Molar mass of A is
The partial pressure of components can be found using the expression as follows:
Here,
Suppose, mass of A and mass of B as
The moles of A are calculated as follows:
The moles of B are calculated as follows:
Total no of moles in the solution arecalculated as follows:
The mole fraction of
Since, sum of mole fraction of all the components of a solution is equal to unity.
So, the mole fraction of
Now, partial pressure of A can be calculated by the expression as follows:
Similarly, the partial pressure of B can be calculated by the expression as follows:
Now, if some of the vapors are condensed at
The relation of vapour and the condensed state will be as follows:
Substituting
By substituting the partial pressure of liquid A
Hence, option (c) is correct.
Reason for incorrect options:
Option (a) is incorrect because after substituting the values, the values given in the option are not obtained.
Option (b) is incorrect because after substituting the values, the values given in the option are not obtained.
Option (d) is incorrect because after substituting the values, the values given in the option are not obtained.
Hence, options (a), (b), and (d) are incorrect.

- A forensic chemist is given a white solid that is suspected of being pure cocaine (C17H21NO4, molar mass = 303.35 g/mol). She dissolves 1.22 0.01 g of the solid in 15.60 0.01 g benzene. The freezing point is lowered by 1.32 0.04C. a. What is the molar mass of the substance? Assuming that the percent uncertainty in the calculated molar mass is the same as the percent uncertainty in the temperature change, calculate the uncertainty in the molar mass. b. Could the chemist unequivocally state that the substance is cocaine? For example, is the uncertainty small enough to distinguish cocaine from codeine (C18H21NO3, molar mass = 299.36 g/mol)? c. Assuming that the absolute uncertainties in the measurements of temperature and mass remain unchanged, how could the chemist improve the precision of her results?arrow_forwardWhat would be the freezing point of a solution formed by adding 1.0 mole of glucose (a molecular compound) to the following amounts of water? a. 250 g (0.25 kg) b. 500 g (0.500 kg) c. 1000 g (1.000 kg) d. 2000 g (2.000 kg)arrow_forwardWhat is the freezing point and normal boiling point of a solution made by adding 39 mL of acetone, C3H6O, to 225 mL of water?
