Solutions


    1. Nature of the solvent
      Explanation: Kf is characteristic of solvent.
    1. Chloroform and benzene
      Explanation: The vapour pressure is lower than the solution, therefore it shows negative deviation.
    1. Vmix= 0
      Explanation: For ideal solution there is no increase or decrease in volume on mixing.
    1. HNO3 + H2O
      Explanation: Negatively deviated non ideal solution.
    1. Swells up
      Explanation: It swells up due to osmosis process and eventually burst.
  1. A pure compound has a sharp melting point. Impurities present if any, lower the melting point of the compound (just because depression in freezing point takes place).

  2. The two ways by which vapour pressure can be lowered are –
    1. By decreasing the temperature.
    2. By adding a non- volatile solute.
  3. Osmotic pressure is the hydrostatic pressure applied on solution which just prevents the flow of solvent molecules through semipermeable membrane. It may be also defined as the excess pressure which must be applied to a solution to prevent the passage of solvent into it through a semipermeable membrane.

  4. When 1 mole of a solute (that neither dissociates nor associates) is dissolved in 1 kg of solvent, the depression in freezing point is called cryoscopic constant.

  5. osmotic pressure is given as π=CRT or π=nvRT
    Osmotic pressure depends only on the number of moles 'n' of the solute present in a definite volume of the solution V and there is no factor involving the nature of the solute. Also, osmotic pressure depends upon the molar concentration of solution. Hence, it is a colligative property.

  6. Ether is not miscible in water because it cannot form H-bonds with water. However lower members of ethers are soluble in water. The solubility of ethers decreases from lower members to higher members due to increase in size of alkyl group which decreases the formation of hydrogen bonds with water.

  7. Two types of liquid mixtures distil over at one temperature. Such mixtures are called azeotropic mixtures or constant boiling mixture.
    1. Those which show positive deviation from Raoult's law and have the mole fraction corresponding to which the vapour pressure is maximum.
    2. Those which show negative deviation from Raoult's law and have the mole fraction corresponding to which the vapour pressure is lowest.. Hence for one of the intermediate composition, the total vapour pressure of such a solution will be highest and the boiling point will be lowest. At this point the composition of liquid and vapour phase is same and the liquid mixture boils at constant temperature and remains unchanged in composition. Therefore, this liquid mixture distills over as if it is a pure liquid. Solution acquires the property of boiling at constant temperature and remains unchanged in composition.
  8. Volume = mass/density
    =100g/1.10glcm3 =90.9cm3
    M = % × density × 10/molar
    mass of solute =15×1.1×1098=1.68M
    Molarity = no.ofmolesofH2SO4volumeofsolution×1000
    Molality = no.ofmolesofsolutemassofsolventinkg
    (15/98)85g×1000 = 1.8 M

  9. Molar mass of K2CO3
    }{M_2\;=(2\;\times39)\;+(1\times12)+(3\times16)\;=138g/mol}
    Amount of solute (K2CO3) w2 =20.7g
    Amount of water mass of solvent
    = 500 - 20.7 = 479.3 g
    Molality=W2×1000M2×W1
    =20.7×1000138×479.3
    = 0.313 m

  10. We know that
    M2=1000×w2×kfΔTf×w1
    Then, MAB2=1000×1×5.12.3×20
    110.87gmol1
    MAB4=1000×1×5.11.3×20
    196.15gmol1
    Now, we have the molar masses of AB2 and AB4 as 110.87gmol-1 and 196.15gmo-1 respectively.
    Let the atomic masses of A and B be x and y respectively.
    Now, we can write:
    x+2y=110.87................(i)
    x+4y=196.15................(ii)
    Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we have
    2y = 85.28
    y=42.64
    Putting the value of y=42.64 in equation (1), we have
    x+2×42.64=110.87
    x=25.59
    Hence, the atomic masses of A and B are 25.59 u and 42.64 u respectively.
