The vapour pressure of a solvent decreased by 10 mm of mercury, when a non-volalite solute was added to the solvent. The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is 0.2. What should be the mole fraction of the solvent, if the decrease in the vapour pressure is to be 20 mm of mercury ?

The vapour pressure of a solution containing non volatile solute is less than the vapour pressure of pure of solvent. Give reason.

A solution containing 30g of non-volatile solute exactly in 90g of water has a vapour pressure of 2.8" kP"_(a) at 298 K. Further 18g of water is then added to the solution and the new vapur pressure becomes 2.9" kP"_(a) at 298 K. Calculate (i) The moar mass of the solute and (ii) Vapour pressure of water at 298 K.

At a given temperature (a) Vapour pressure of a solution containing nonvolatile solute is proportional to mole fraction of solvent (b) Lowering of vapour pressure of solution containing nonvolatile solute is proportional to mole fraction of solute (c) Relative lowering of vapour pressure is equal to mole fraction of solute

Calculate the vapour pressure , if 0.083 mole of a non-volatile solute is present in 80 g of ethanol at 25^@C , Vapour pressure of ethanol is 22.45 mm.

Assertion: The pressure exerted by the vapour of a liquid at equilibrium at a given temperature is called its vapour pressure. Reason: If a nonvolatile solute is added to a solvent to give a solution, the vapour pressure of the solution is found to be greater than the vapour pressure of the pure solvent.

The vapour pressure of pure liquids A and B are 450 and 700 mm Hg respectively, at 350 K. Find out the composition of the liquid mixture if total vapour pressure is 600 mm Hg. Also find the composition of the vapour phase. Apply Raoult's law P_(T)=P_(A)^(0)x_(A)+P_(B)^(0)x_(B)=P_(B)^(0)x_(A)+P_(B)^(0)(1-x_(A)) to calculate mole fraction of A(x_(A)) and B(x_(B)) . In vapour phase, partial pressure are used insted of number of moles.
