An aqueous solution containing 0.2 g of compound A in 21.7 g of water freezes at 272.814 K. If the value of Kffor water is 1.86 K kg mol– 1, calculate molecular weight of compound A.

Solution

We have, Kf = 1.86 K kg mol– 1 
w = 0.2 g,
W = 21.7 g,
ΔTf= 272.814 K.

Define osmotic pressure. Arrange the following in increasing order of osmotic pressure and give reasons in support of your answer :

Solution

 Osmotic Pressure. The pressure which is applied to the solution in order to prevent the passage of solvent into it through a semi-permeable membrane present between the two is termed as osmotic pressure.

We know that osmotic pressure is a colligative property and hence it depends on the number of solute particles.
straight i right parenthesis space Mole space of space Sucrose space equals space fraction numerator 34.2 over denominator 342 end fraction space equals space 0.1
ii right parenthesis space Mole space of space Glucose space equals space 90 over 180 space equals space 0.5
iii right parenthesis space Mole space of space NaCl space equals space fraction numerator 5.85 over denominator 58.5 end fraction space equals space 0.1

Since    1 mole = 6.023 x 1023 particles

So    Sucrose = 6.023 x 1022 particles

(As Sucrose and Glucose are undissociated)

Glucose = 30.115 x 1022 particles

NaCl = 12.046 x 1022 particles.

(NaCl dissociates to give two ions)

Hence, the increasing order of their osmotic pressure is, Sucrose < NaCl < Glucose.

Complete the following statements by selecting the correct alternative from the choices given:

An aqueous solution of urea freezes at – 0.186°C, Kf for water = 1.86 K kg mo1–1, Kb for water = 0.512 K kg mo1–1. The boiling point of the urea solution will be:

  • 373.065 K

  • 373.0512K

  • 373.186 K

  • 373.512 K

Solution

B.

373.0512K

[0-(-0.186)] = 1.86 x m

 m = 0.1861.86 = 0.1Tb = Kb.m Tb = 0.512 x 0.1 = 0.0512T- To = 0.0512T = 0.0512 + To = 0.0512 + 373 = 373.0512 K

Calculate the osmotic pressure of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.025 g of K2SO4 in 2.0 litres of water at 25oC assuming that K2SO4 is completely dissociated. (mol. wt. of K2SO4 = 174 g mol-1)

Solution

As given,

Mass of K2SO4 = 0.025 gm

Molar mass of K2SO4 = 174 g/mol

Volume = 2L

Temperature  = 25oC (298 K)
