A nonvolatile organic compound was used to make up two solutions. Solution contains of dissolved in of water, and solution B contains of dissolved in of benzene. Solution has a vapor pressure of at the normal boiling point of water, and solution B has the same vapor pressure at the normal boiling point of benzene. Calculate the molar mass of in solutions and and account for the difference.
Solution
VerifiedIn this exercise, the goal is to determine the molar mass of the compound in the two solutions and compare. Since the problem provided us with the vapor pressures of the solution, we need to use the formula for the vapor-pressure lowering, which is given by the equation:
where,
is the vapor pressure of the solution
is the mole fraction of the solvent
is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent
