The mass of a non-volatile solute of molar mass `40 "g mol"^(-1)` that should be dissolved in 114 g of octane to lower its vapour pressure by 20% is :

A

10 g

B

11.4 g

C

9.8 g

D

12.8 g

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`(p_(A)^(@)-p_(A))/(p_(A)^(@))=(W_(B)M_(A))/(W_(A)M_(B))`
Lowering in vapour pressure is 20%
`:.(p_(A)^(@)-p_(A))/(p_(A)^(@))=(20)/(100)=0.2`
`W_(B)=?, W_(A)=114g`
`M_(B)=40g, M_(A)=114g`
`:.0.2=(W_(B)xx114)/(20xx114)` or `W_(B)=8g`.
