Ans: m = 257.45 2. The vapour pressure of pure benzene at 25C is 639.7 mm of Hg and the vapour pressure of a solution of a solute in C6H6 at the same temperature is 631.9 mm of Hg. Calculate molality of solution.

Ans: 0.158 mol/kg of solvent 3. The vapour pressure of water at 20C is 17.54 mm. When 20 g of solute was added in 100 g water, the V.P. was found to lower by 0.30 mm. Calculate M.wt. of solute.

Ans: m = 206.88 4. The vapour pressure of pure benzene at a certain temperature is 640 mm of Hg. A nonvolatile non-electrolyte solid weighing 2.1/5 g is added to 39.0 g of benzene. The vapour pressure of the solution is 600 mm of Hg. What is the molecular weight of solid substance.

The vapour pressure of water is 92.5 mm at 300 K. Calculate V.P. of 1 molal solution of a solute in it.

Ans: PS = 9084 mm 8. A solution containing 30 g of a non-volatile solute in exactly 90 g water has a vapour pressure of 21.85 mm of Hg at 25C. Further 18 g of water is then added to solution, the new vapour pressure becomes 22.15 mm of Hg at 25 C. Calculate Vapour pressure of water at 25C

Ans: P = 23.78 mm 9. Find the molality of a solution containing a non-volatile solute if the vapour pressure is 2% below the vapour pressure of pure water.

Ans: 1.333 10. Calculate the relative lowering in V.P. if 10 g of a solute (m.wt. 100) are dissolved in 180g water.

Ans: 0.0099 11. At 50C the vapour pressure of pure water and ethyl alcohol are 92.5 and 219.9 mm of Hg respectively. If 6 g of non-volatile solute of m.wt. 120 are dissolved in 150 g of each of these solvent, what will be the ratio of relative vapour pressure lowering in two solvents?

Ans: 0.3949 12. Calculate the weight of a non-volatile solute (m.wt. 40), which should be dissolved in 114 g octane to reduce its vapour pressure to 80%.

Ans: 10 g 13. What weight of non-volatile solute, urea (NH2CONH2) needs to be dissolved in 100 g of water, in order to decrease the vapour pressure of water by 25%. What will be the molality of solution.

Ans: w =111.11 g & molality of solution = 18.52 m
