Question

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

Solution

The correct option is C 724
ΔTb=Kb×m
2=0.76×2.5×1000Mol.wt. of solute×100
Mol. wt. of solute =9.5 g mol1
Again,

ΔP760=2.5/9.5100/18
Lowering of V.P. =36
Vapour pressure of solution =76036=724

Option A is correct.
