QUESTION BASED ON COLLIGATIVE PROPERTY, RELATIVE LOWERING OF VAPOUR PRESSURE

1. Define colligative properties.

2. Show that Relative Lowering of vapour pressure is a colligative property.

3. Vapour pressure of water at 293K is 17.535 mm Hg. calculate vapour pressure of water at 293 K
when 25 g of glucose is dissolved in 450 g of water.

4. A solution is prepared by dissolving 10 g of nonvolatile solute in 200 g of water. It has a vapour

pressure of 31.84 mm of Hg at 308 K. Calculate the molar mass of the solute. (Vapour pressure of
pure water at 308K is 32 mm of Hg.)

5. At 250C the saturated vapour pressure of water is 3.165 k Pa (23.75 mm Hg). Find the saturated
vapour pressure of a 5% aqueous solution of urea at same temperature. (MM of urea =60.05 g/mol)

6. The vapour pressure of pure benzene at a certain temperature is 0.850 bar. A nonvolatile, non-
electrolyte solid weighing 0.5 g when added to 39.0 g benzene (molar mass 78g/mol). vapour
pressure of the solution, then is 0.845 bar. what is the molar mass of the solid substance?

7. Calculate the mass of a nonvolatile solute (molecular mass = 40) which should be dissolved in
114g octane to reduce its vapour pressure to 80%.

8. A solution containing 30g of non-volatile solute exactly in 90g water has a vapour pressure of 2.8
kPa

at 298K. Further 18g of water is then added to solution, the new vapour pressure becomes 2.9kpa at
298 K. Calculate (a) Molecular mass of solute (b) Vapour pressure of water at 298K

9. An aqueous solution of 2% nonvolatile solute exerts a pressure of 1.004 bar at the boiling point of
the solvent. what is the molecular mass of the solute? (Vapour pressure of pure water =1atm=1.013
bar)

10. Vapour pressure of pure water at 298 K is 23.8 mmHg .50 g of urea (NH2CONH2) is dissolved in
850 g of water. calculate the vapour pressure of water for this solution and its relative lowering.

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