The ratio of speed of sound in neon to that in water vapours at any temperature (when molecular weight of neon is `2.02xx10^(-2)kg mol^(-1)`

A

`1.06`

B

`1.60`

C

`6.10`

D

`15.2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`(V_1)/(V_2) = sqrt((gamma_1)/(gamma_2) xx (M_2)/(M_1)) = sqrt(5/3 xx 3/4 xx 1.8/2.02) = 1.0553`

Pure water freezes at 273 K and 1 bar. The addition of 34.5 g of ethanol to 500 g of water changes the freezing point of the solution. Use the freezing point depression constant of water as 2 K kg mol^(-1). The figures shown below represent plots of vapour pressure (V.P.) versus temperature (T). [molecular weight of ethanol is 46 g mol^(-1) Among the following, the option representing change in the freezing point is
