Question

For a dilute solution containing 2.5 g of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute in 100 g of water, the elevation in boiling point at 1 atm pressure is 2C. Assuming concentration of solute is much lower than the concentration of solvent, the vapour pressure (mm of Hg) of the solution is (take Kb=0.76K kg mol1).

Solution

The correct option is A

724


The elevation in boiling point is
ΔTb=Kb.m
m=molality=n2w1×1000
[n2 = Number of moles of solute, w1 = Weight of solvent in gram]
2=0.76×n2100×1000
n2=519
Also, from relative lowering of vapour pressure:
Δpp0=x2=n2n1+n2n2n1 [ n1>>n2]
ΔP=760×519×18100
= 36 mm of Hg
p = 760 – 36 = 724 mm of Hg
