On dissolving 3.24 g of sulphur in 40 g of benzene, boiling point of solution was higher than that of benzene by 0.81K `(K_(b) = 2.53` K kg `mol^(-1)`). What is molecular formula of sulphur ? (Atomic mass s = 32 g `mol^(-1)`)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`M_(B) = (K_(b) xx W_(b) xx 1000)/(Delta T_(b) xx W_(A)) = (2.53 xx 3.24 xx 10^(3))/(0.81 xx 40)`
`= 253 g mol^(-1)`
Let the molecular formula of sulphur = `S_(x)`
Atomic mass of sulphur = 32
Molecular mass = `32 xx x`
32 x = 253
`x = 7.91 = 8`
Molecular formula of sulphur = `S_(S)`

when 1.80 g of a nonvolatile solute is dissolved in 90 g of benzene, the boiling point is raised to 354.11K . If the boiling point of benzene is 353.23K and K_(b) for benzene is 2.53 KKg mol^(-1) , calculate the molecular mass of the solute. Strategy: From the boiling point of the solution, calculate the boiling point elevation, DeltaT_(b) , then solve the equation DeltaT_(b)=K_(b)m for the molality m . Molality equals moles of solute divided by kilograms of solvent (benzene). By substituting values for molality and kilograms C_(6)H_(6) , we can solve for moles of solute. The molar mass of solute equals mass of solute (1.80 g) divided by moles of solute. The molecular mass (in amu) has the same numerical value as molar mass in g mol^(-1) .
