Vapour pressure of CCl4 at 25oC is 143mmHg. If 0.5gm of non-volatile solute (mol. mass 65) is dissolved in 100mlCCl4, then the vapour pressure of the solution at 25oC is:
[Given: density of CCl4=1.58g/cm3]
A

Solution
The correct option is A141.93mm
Weight of CCl4=d×V=100×1.58=158g=W2
W1=Weightofnon−volatilesolute=0.5g
M1=65g, M2=154g
Relative lowering of vapour pressure=P0−PSP0=W1×M2M1×W2
