Suggest the most important type of intermolecular attractive interaction in the following pairs.
(i) n-hexane and n-octane.
(ii) I2 and CCl4.
(iii) NaCl O4 and water.
(iv) methanol and acetone.
(v) acetonitrite (CH3 CN) and acetone (C3H6O).



Answer:

(i) The intermolecular attractive forces between the A-A and B-B are nearly equal to those between A-B.
(ii) A-B interactions are weaker than those between A-A or B-B.
(iii) A-B interactions are more than those between A-A and B-B.
(iv) A-B interactions are less than A-A and B-B interactions.
(v) A-B interactions are more than A-A and B-B interactions.

The vapour pressure of water is 12.3 kPa at 300 K. Calculate vapour pressure of 1 molar solution of a non-volatile solute in it.

Answer:

1 molar solution means 1 number of moles of the solute per kilogram (kg) of the solvent. Mole fraction of solute.
= 11+100018=  11+55.55= 156.55    PA0-PAPA0=xB

or   12.3-PA12.3 = 156.55

      12.3-PA = 12.356.55          PA = 12.3-12.356.55                 = 12.3 - 0.2175          PA = 12.0825 kpa                = 12.08 kpa

Based on solute-solvent interactions, arrange the following in order of increasing solubility in n-octane and explain cyclohexane, KCl, CH3OH, CH3CN.

Answer:

n- octane is non-polar solvent therefore the solubility of a non-polar solute is more in n- octane solvent.
 
The order of increasing solubility is :

KCl<CH3OH<CH3CN< cyclohexane.

Calculate the mass of a non-volatile solute (molecular mass 40 g mol–1) which should be dissolved in 114 g octane to reduce its vapour pressure to 80%.


Answer:
molar mass of solute, M2 =40g mol-1
mass of octane, w1= 114g
molar mass of solute, M1 = 114 g mol-1

Let the vapour pressure of pure octane be pA0
then, the vapour pressure of the octane after dissolving the non volatile solute is  80100p10
applying the relation,
PA0-PAPA0 = xA
or       100-80100 = ωBMBωAMA

or         20100=ωB40×114114

or                   ωB = 40×20100 = 8 g
