An aqueous solution is 1.00 molal in Kl. Which change will cause the vapour pressure of the solution to increase?

A

Addition of NaCl

B

Addition of `Na_2SO_4`

C

Addition of 1.00 molal KI

D

Addition of water

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Addition of water to an aqueous solution of KI causes the concentration of the solution to decrease thereby increasing the vapour pressure. In the other three options the electrolytes undergo ionisation, which leads to lowering of vapour pressure.
