Vapour pressure of CCl4 at 250C is 143mm of Hg. 0.5 gm of a non-volatile solute (mol. wt. = 65) is dissolved in 100ml CCl4. Find the vapour pressure of the solution (Density of CCl4=1.58g/cm2)
The correct option is
B
141.43 mm
WB=0.5gram,
MolecularweightofB(MB)=65amu
WA=Volume×density=100×1.58=158grams
MolecularmassofCCl4(MA)=12+35.5×4=154gmol−1
po−pspo=WB×MAMB×WA×po
ps=poWB×MAMB×WA×po
=143−0.5×15465×158×143=143−1.07=141.93mm
