Vapour pressure of pure A(p(A)^(@))=100 ...

Vapour pressure of pure `A(p_(A)^(@))=100` mm Hg
Vapour pressure of pure `B(p_(B)^(@))= 150` mm Hg
2 mol of liquid A and 3 mol of liquid B are mixed to form an ideal solution. The vapour pressure of solution will be:

A

`a.) 185 mm`

B

`b.) 130 mm`

C

`c.) 148 mm`

D

`d.) 145 mm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
`chi_(A)=(2)/(5),chi_(B)=(3)/(5)`,
Using Raoult's law equation,
`P_("total")=p_(A).^(@)chi_(A)+p_(B).^(@)chi_(B)`
`=100xx(2)/(5)+150 xx(3)/(5)=40 + 90 =130`

At a particular temperature, the vapour pressure of two liquids A and B are 120 and 180 mm Hg respectively. If 2 mole of A and 3 mole of B are mixed to form an ideal solution, the vapour pressure of the solution at the same temperature will be (in mm Hg)

1 mole heptane (V.P = 92 mm of Hg) is mixed with 4 mol. Octane (V.P = 31 mm of Hg) , form an ideal solution. Find out the vapour pressure of solution.

If P_(A) is the vapour pressure of a pure liquid A and the mole fraction of A in the mixture of two liquids A and B is x, the parial vapour pressure of A is:

At 300 K the vapour pressure of an ideal solution containing 1 mole of liquid A and 2 moles of liquid B is 500 mm of Hg. The vapour pressure of the solution increases by 25 mm of Hg, if one more mole of B is added to the above ideal solution at 300K. Then the vapour pressure of A in its pure state is
