Question

When a liquid that is immiscible with water was steam distilled at 95.2oC at a total pressure of 99.652 kPa, the distillate contained 1.27 g of the liquid per gram of water. What will be the molar mass of the liquid if the vapour pressure of water is 85.140 kPa at 95.2oC?

Solution

The correct option is C 134.1 gmol1
Total pressure, Ptotal=99.652 kPa

Pwater=pB=85.140 kPa

Pliquid=pA=(99.65285.140) kPa

=14.512 kPa

and mAmB=1.271

or mAmB=pAMApBMB

or, MA=(mAmB)(pBMBpA)

MA=1.27×(85.140kPa×18 g mol114.512 kPa)

MA134.1 g mol1
