A solution `M` is prepared by mixing ethanol and water. The mole fraction of ethanol in the mixture is `0.9`
Given: Freezing point depression constant of water
`(K_(f)^(water)=1.86 K kg mol^(-1))`
Freezing point depression constant to ethanol
`(K_(f)^(ethanol))=2.0 K kg mol^(-1))`
Boiling point elevation constant of water
`(K_(b)^(water))=0.52 K kg mol^(-1))`
Boiling point elevation constant of ethanol
`(K_(b)^(ethanol))=1.2 K kg mol^(-1))`
Standard freezing point of water = `273 K `
Standard freezing point of ethanol = `155.7 K `
Standard boiling point of water = `373 K `
Standard boiling point of ethanol = `351.5 K `
Vapour pressure of pure water =`32.8 mm Hg`
Vapour pressure of pure ethanol =`40 mm Hg`
Molecular weight of water =`18 g mol^(-1)`
Molecular weight of ethanol =`46 g mol^(-1)`
In anwering the following questions consider the solutions to be ideal dilute solutions and solutes to be non-volatile and non-dissociative.
The vapour pressure of the solution `M` is

A

`39.3 mm Hg`

B

`36.0 mm Hg`

C

`29.5 mm Hg`

D

`28.8 mm Hg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Total vapour pressure, `p = p_(A)^(@)xxA`
`p= 40 xx 0.9= 36` mm Hg
Since it is given that solute is taken as non volatile, water does not contribute to the total vapour pressure.
