2) Vapour Pressure of Solutions of Non-Volatile or Volatile Solutes

A) 48.490 g of a non-volatile solute is dissolved in 455.0 g of water.
The solute does not react with water nor dissociate in solution.
Assume that the resulting solution displays ideal Raoult's law behaviour.
At 40°C the vapour pressure of the solution is 54.453 torr.
The vapour pressure of pure water at 40°C is 55.324 torr.
Calculate the molar mass of the solute (g/mol).

B) Now suppose, instead, that 48.490 g of a volatile solute is dissolved in 455.0 g of water.
This solute also does not react with water nor dissociate in solution.
The pure solute displays, at 40°C, a vapour pressure of 5.532 torr.
Again, assume an ideal solution.
If, at 40°C the vapour pressure of this solution is also 54.4

Answer #1

A) mass of non volatile m1 = 48.49 gm

Molar mass of non volatile solute = M1

Moles of solute n1 = m1/M1 = 48.49/M1

Water treated as solvent.

Mass of water m2 = 455 gm

Molar mass of water M2 =18 gm/mol

Moles of water, n2 = m2/M2 =455/18 = 25.277 mol

Mole fraction of solvent = Xsolvent = n2/(n1+n2) = 25.277/(48.49/M1 + 25.277)

At 40C, the vapor pressure of solution, Psolution= 54.453 torr

Vapor pressure of pure water(solvent),   Psolvent=55.324 torr

Roults law, solute doesn't react with water nor dissociate with solution.

Psolution = Xsolvent* Psolvent

54.453 = 25.277/(25.277+48.96/M1) * 55.324

25.277 + 48.96/M1 = 25.68

M1 = 121.48 gm/mol

Molar mass of solute M1 = 121.48 gm/mol

As solute is dissolved in a solvent, the vapor pressure of the solution changes according to Raoult's law Psoln=Psolv×Xsolv where Psoln is the vapor pressure of the solution, Psolv is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent, and Xsolv is the mole fraction of the solvent. If the solute dissociates into ions, the term Xsolv must be modified to take into consideration the total number of moles of particles in the solution, both ions and molecules. When a solution contains...
