The weight of a non-volatile solute (molecular weight = 40), which should be dissolved in 114g octane to reduce its vapour pressure to 80% is ___________ .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(P^(@)-P_(S))/(P_(S)) = (n)/(N) = (wM)/(m xx W)`, Ocatne is `C_(8)H_(18)`.
(Given `m = 40, W = 114g, M_("Ocatne") = 114`)
`(100-80)/(80) = (w xx 114)/(40 xx 114)`
`w = 10 g`
Note: By `(P^(@)-P_(S))/(P_(S)) = (n)/(N)`
(Only for dilute solution, the answer comes `8 g`.)
