At 300 K, 36 g of glucose present per litre in its solution has an osmotic pressure of 4.98 bar. If osmotic pressure of solution is 1.52 bar at the same temperature, what would be its concentration.

Answer:

Solution:
Mass of glucose, w =36 g
Osmotic pressure, π = 4.98 bar
Temperature, T = 300 K
Volume of solution, V = 1L
Formula of osmotic pressure
 π = CRT
    =nVRT
 
Plug the value and solve for R we get
R = π V/(nT) = 4.98 × 180/ (36 × 300)
R = 4.98/ 60  L atm K-1 mol– 1
Plug the value in second case we get
 π = CRT
   
C = π/(RT)
Plug the values we get
 

C = 1.524.9860×30

C = 0.061 M

A solution is made by dissolving 30 g of a non-volatile solute in 90g of water. It has a vapour pressure of 2.8 kPa at 298 K. At 298 K, vapour pressure of pure water is 3.64 kPa. Calculate the molar mass of the solute.

The relative lowering of vapour pressure is given by the following expression. 
psolvent0 -psolutionpsolvent0 =n2n1+n2

Where psolvent0 is the vapour pressure of pure solvent, Psolution  is the vapour pressure of solution containing dissolved solute, n1 is the number of moles of solvent and n2 is the number of moles of solute.

For dilute solution n2<<n1, therefore the above expression reduces to 

psolvent0- psolutionpsolvent0 =n2n1= w2 xM1M2 x w1 .....(A)

Where w1 and w2 are the masses and M1 and M2 are the molar masses of solvent and solute respectively.

We are given that

W1 =30 g

W2 =30g

psolution =2.8 kpa

p0solvent =? And M2=?

subtituting these values in relation we get,psolvent0 -2.8psolvent0 =30 x18M2 x90psolvent0 -2.8psolvent0 =6M2  (1)similarly for second case we have the following value.w2 =90 gw1 =90+18 =108gpsolution =2.9 kpatherefore we getpsolvent0 -2.9psolvent0 =30 x18M2 x108 (2)dividing 1 and 2 we getpsolvent0 -2.8psolvent0-2.9 =65vapour pressure of water at 298 k is 3.4kpasubstituting the vaue of psolvent0 in 1 we get3.4 -2.83.4 =6M2= 34 gram Therefore mass of solute is 34 g .

A 4% solution of sucrose is isotonic with 3% solution of an unknown organic substance. Calculate the molecular mass of unknown resistance.

Answer:

AS both the solution are  isotonic they should have same concentrationin mole/litre
for sucrose solution concentration =4g/100cm3
                                                   = 40g/Litre

molar mass of sucrose C 12H22O11 = 342
        therefore we get =40/342 moles/litre

For unknown substance Let N be the molecular mass then concentration = 3g/100cm3 
                                    = 30g/Litre

                                   = 30/N moles/Litre
comparing the both equation
30/N = 40/342

N=(30 x 342)/40

N= 256.5

Urea forms an ideal solution in water. Determine the vapour pressure of an aqueous solution contains 10% by mass of urea at 400C. (Vapour pressure of water at 400C = 55.3 mm of Hg)

Answer:

p°-pp° = xurea

Let the mass of solution be 100g 
 therefore mass of urea = 10 g
 molecular mass of urea = 60 g
 
xurea = 10/60 =1/6

molecular mass of water = 18g
xwater = 90/18 =5

xurea = mole fraction of urea total mole fraction of solutionxurea =1/61/6+5 = 1/631/6xurea = 1/31using above formula55.3-p55.3 = 13155.3-p = 55.331p= 55.3-55.33155.31-131 =pp =55.3 ×3031p= 53.52mm Hg

Calculate the vapour- pressure lowering of water when5.67g of glucose, C6H12O6 is dissolved in 25.2 g water at 250C. The vapour pressure of water at 250C is 23.8 mmHg. What is the vapour pressure of the solution?


WB =5.67g

WA =25.2g

MB=180g/mol

MA=18g/mol

NB= 5.67/180 =0.0315 mol glucose

NA=25.2/18 =1.40 mol water
