MCQ 151 Mark
18g glucose (C6​H12​O6​) is added to 178.2g of water. The vapour pressure of this aqueous solution at 1000C in torr is:
  • A
    7.60
  • B
    76.00
  • C
    752.40
  • D
    759.00
Answer
  1. 752.40

Explanation:

Molecular mass of water = (2 × 1) + (1 × 16) = 18g

For 178.2g water, $\text{n}_\text{A}=\frac{178.2}{18}=9.9\text{mol}$

Molecular mass of glucose = (6)(12) + (12)(1) + 6(16) = 180g.

For 18g glucose, $\text{n}_\text{B}=\frac{18}{180}=0.1\text{mol}$

$\text{X}_{\text{B}}=\frac{0.1}{(0.1+9.9)}=0.01$

$\text{X}_{\text{A}}=1-0.01=0.99$

For lowering of vapour pressure,

$\text{P}=\text{P}^0_\text{A}\text{x}^{\text{A}}=\text{P}^0_\text{A}(1-\text{X}_\text{B})$

$\text{P}=760(1-0.01)$

$\text{P}=760-7.6$

$\text{P}=752.40\ \text{torr}$

Vapour pressure of water is 752.40 torr.

Isotonic solutions must have the same ___________.
  • A
    Solute.
  • B
    Density.
  • C
    Elevation in boiling point.
  • D
    Depression in freezing point.
Answer
  1. Elevation in boiling point.
  2. Depression in freezing point.

Explanation:

Two solutions which have the same osmotic pressure at a given temperature are said to be isotonic in nature. The osmotic pressure of a given solution is given by the formula

$\pi=\text{CRT}=\frac{\text{n}}{\text{VRT}}$

Where π is the osmotic pressure of the solution, C is the concentration, the moles of solute per volume of solvent and T is the temperature, with R being universal gas constant. Osmotic pressure is a colligative property, hence for two solutions to be isotonic, the nature of the solute does not matter, i.e. the solute in the two solutions do not have to be the same. Even the density, which does not have a place in the equation of osmotic pressure does not need to be the same. The isotonic solutions at a given temperature need to have the same volume and same molar concentration, hence they will also have the equal elevation in boiling point and depression in freezing point, two other colligative properties.

A cylinder filled with a movable piston contains liquid water in equilibrium with water vapour at 25oC. Which one of the following operations results in a decrease in the equilibrium vapour pressure?
  • A
    Moving piston downward a short distance
  • B
    Removing a small amount of vapour
  • C
    Removing a small amount of the liquid water
  • D
    Dissolving salt in the water
Answer
  1. Dissolving salt in the water

Explanation:

Vapour pressure is a surface phenomenon, when the surface area is more, vapour pressure will be more. When we add solute, what we do is we decrease the vapour pressure of solvent because same of the salt ions will be present at the solvent surface, thus taking place of same of the solvent particles which were actively participating in maintain, that previous high value of vapour pressure. So, the equilibrium vapour pressure value decreases. Thus, dissolving salt in water results in decreasing of equilibrium vapour pressure.

At equilibrium, the rate of dissolution of a solid solute in a volatile liquid solvent is:
  • A
    Less than the rate of crystallisation
  • B
    Greater than the rate of crystallisation
  • C
    Equal to the rate of crytallisation
  • D
    Zero
Answer
  1. Equal to the rate of crytallisation

Explanation:

Crystallization is the process of the formation of solid crystals precipitating from a solution.

In an unsaturated solution, the rate of dissolution of a solute in a volatile liquid solvent is greater than the rate of crystallization. 

In a supersaturated solution, the rate of dissolution of a solute in a volatile liquid solvent is less than the rate of crystallization.

At equilibrium, the rate of dissolution of a solute in a volatile liquid solvent is equal to the rate of crystallization.
