Question

a) On dissolving 2.34 g of solute in 40 g of benzene the boiling point of solution was higher than that of benzene by 0.81K,Kb value for benzene is 2.53 K kg mol1. Calculate the molar mass of the solute.
b) State Henry's law. Write its mathematical form.

Solution

a)
M2=Kb×W2ΔTbW1
M2=2.53×2.340.81×40
M2=0.183 kg/mol
M2=183 g/mol
b)
Henry's law: Solubility of a gas in a liquid at constant temperature is proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solution.
S=KP
S= solubility of the gas in mol/L
K=Henry's law constant with units mol/ L / atm.
P= pressure of the gas in atmosphere.
