Assertion: The weight percentage of a compound A in a solution is given by % of A=("Mass A")/("Total mass of solution")xx100 Reason: The mole fraction of a component A is given by, Mole fraction of A =("No. of moles of A")/("Total no. of moles of all components")

The sum of mole fraction of all components of a solution is unity.

Assertion (A): The sum of mole fractions of all the component of a solution is unity. Reason (R ): The mole fraction is a temperature dependent quantity.

Vapor pressure of a solution of Volatile components and composition of vapor: Consider a solution containing 738 g of water and 253 g of ethanol (C_(2)H_(5)OH) at 323 K . At this temperature, the vapour pressure of pure ethanol is 0.292 atm and the vapor pressure of pure water is 0.122 atm . Calculate the vapour pressure of the solution and mole fraction of every component in vapour phase. Strategy: First calculate the moles and the mole fraction of each component in the liquid solution. Then apply Raoult's law to each of the two volatile components to calculate their partial pressures. The total vapour pressure is the sum of the partial vapour pressures of the components and the mole fraction of a components in a gaseous mixture equals the ratio of its partial pressure to the total pressure.

The plot of total vapour pressure as a function of mole fraction of the component of an ideal solution formed by mixing liquids X and Y is

Assertion: The sum of mol fractions of all the components of a solution is unity. Reason: Mole fraction is temperature dependent mode of concentrations.

At a certain temperature, the vapour pressure of pure ether is 640 mm and that of pure acetone is 280 mm . Calculate the mole fraction of each component in the vapour state if the mole fraction of ether in the solution is 0.50.

How is the mole fraction of a gaseous component related to its partial pressure and the total vapour pressure?
