Q.2 Which of the following solutions shows positive deviation from Raoult’s law?
(a) Acetone + Aniline
(b) Acetone + Ethanol

Ans-A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the composition and properties both are uniform
throughout the mixture.The salt water described above is homogeneous because the dissolved salt is
evenly distributed throughout the entire salt water sample.

it melts starts melting due to depression in freezing point.

Q.13. 92 g of ethyl alcohol is dissolved in 90 g of water. Calculate the mole fraction of water in solution.

Ans- Mass of ethyl alcohol. = 92 g

Molar mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g

Moles of ethyl alcohol = 92 g / 46 g = 2 moles

Mass of water. = 90 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g

Moles of water = 90 g / 18 g = 5 moles

Mole fraction of water. = 5/ 5+2 = 0.7

Normality = n × Molarity

N = n × M (where n is an integer, Called as Vacancy factor)

Q.15. Which solution is more concentrated 1M or 1m?

than 1000 g of solvent.

Q.16. What are the Isotonic Solutions?

Ans- Two solutions having same salt concentration are called as isotic solutions.If these two solutions
are separated by a semipermeable membrane, water will flow in equal parts out of each solution and into
the other.

Q.17.What are the effects of temperature in solubility?

Ans- Effect of temperature:

(i) If, the process is endothermic ( solH> 0), the solubility increases with rise in temperature.

(ii) If, process is exothermic ( solH< 0), the solubility decreases with rise in temperature.

Q.18.What is Henry's Law?

Ans- According to Henry’s law states that “the partial pressure of the gas in vapour phase (p) is
proportional to the mole fraction of the gas (x) in the solution”.
p = KH x

where,

KH is the Henry’s law constant and is different for different gases at a particular temperature. Higher the
value of KH at a given pressure, the lower is the solubility of the gas in the liquid.

Q.19. State Raoult's Law for a non-volatile solute in a single volatile solvent and its limitations?
Ans –According to Raoult’s law the vapour pressure of a solution of a non-volatile solute is equal to the
vapour pressure of the pure solvent at that temperature multiplied by its mole fraction.
P = P0Χ

Where,
P = Vapour pressure of a solution
P0 = Vapour pressure of pure solvent
X = mole fraction of solvent
Limitations-

(i) Raoult’s law is only applicable for very dilute solutions.

(ii) Raoult's law is applicable to solutions containing non-volatile solute only.
(iii) Raoult's law is not applicable to solutes which dissociate or associate in the particular solution.

Q.20. A solution of glucose (molar mass = 180 g mol–1) in water is labelled as 10% (by mass). What
would be the molarity and molality of the solution? (Density of solution = 1.2 g mL–1)

Ans- Mass of solution of glucose = 100 g

Mass of solute WB = 10 g,
Molar mass of solute MB = 180 g
Mass of solvent WA = 100 g- 10 g = 90 g,
We know that,
Density = Mass / Volume
Hence,
Volume of solution = Mass / Density = 100 g/ 1.2 g mL–1

(i) Molarity =

= 0.66 mol L–1

(ii) Molality =

= 0.62 mol kg–1

Q.21. Explain elevation in boiling point.

Ans- Boiling point of a solution containing a non –volatile solute is always higher than the boiling point
of the pure solvent. This increase in boiling point is termed as elevation in boiling point.
If Boiling point of pure solvent = T1
Boiling point of Pure Solution = T2

Elevation in boiling point = T2 – T1 = Tb = Kb X m

Tb = Kb X

Q.22. Write the relationship between relative lowering of vapour pressure and mole fraction of solute?

Ans- According to Raoult's law, According to Raoult’s law the vapour pressure of a solution of a non-
volatile solute is equal to the vapour pressure of the pure solvent at that temperature multiplied by its
mole fraction.

P = P0ΧA
Where,
P = Vapour pressure of a solution
P0 = Vapour pressure of pure solvent
ΧA = mole fraction of solvent

We know that,

ΧA +ΧB =1

ΧA =1- ΧB

Where ΧA is the mole fraction of solvent and ΧB is the mole fraction of solute.
From above equation, we get

P = P0(1- ΧB )

P = P0- P0ΧB

P- P0 = P0ΧB

(P- P0) / P0 = ΧB

Where (P- P0) / P0 is the relative lowering in vapour pressure.

Q.23. Non-ideal solutions exhibit either positive or negative deviations from Raoult’s law. What are
these deviations ? Explain with one example for each type.

Ans- Non- ideal Solutions-

The solutions that do not obey Raoult's law are known as non-ideal solutions. Non-ideal solutions exhibit
either positive or negative deviations from Raoult’s law.

1. Non-ideal solutions exhibit negative deviations from Raoult’s law-

When, the partial vapour pressure of each component and total vapour pressure of the solution is less
than expected from Raoult’s law. Such solutions show negative deviation.
Example : Mixture of CHCl3 and acetone.

2. Non-ideal solutions exhibit positive deviations from Raoult’s law-

When, the partial vapour pressure of each component and total vapour pressure of the solution is more
than expected from Raoult’s law. Such solutions show Positive deviation.
Example : Mixture of acetone and benzene.

Q.24.Differentiate between molarity and molality of a solution.

Ans- Molarity : It is the number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 litre of solution. It is temperature
dependent.

Molarity =

Molality : It is the number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 kg of the solvent. It is temperature

independent.

Molality =

The relationship between molarity and molality

Molarity (M) and Molality (m) relationship :

∵ Molarity is M moles of solute present in 1000 mL solution
If density of solution is d g mL-1, then
Mass of solution = 1000 d g
Mass of solute = MM2
(M2 is molar mass of solute)
∴ Mass of solvent = 1000 d – MM2 g
Q.25.State Henry’s law and mention two of its important applications.

Ans- According to Henry’s law “The partial pressure of the gas in vapour phase is proportional to the
mole fraction of the gas in the solution “,

p = KH X

Where, KHis the Henry’s law constant

Applications of Henry’s law :

(i) To increase the solubility of CO2 in soft drinks and soda water, the bottle is sealed under high pressure.

(ii)To avoid a dangerous medical condition called bends, scuba divers use oxygen diluted with less
soluble helium gas.

Q.26. Define osmotic pressure of a solution. How is the osmotic pressure related to the concentration of
a solute in a solution?

Ans- Osmotic pressure : It is the external pressure that needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the
entry of the solvent through semi-permeable membrane.It is represented by symbol (π).
According to the Boyle-van’t Hoff Law, the osmotic pressure (π) of a dilute solution is directly
proportional to its concentration at constant temperature.

π ∝ C (At constant temperature)

π ∝ CT (At constant concentration)
π = CRT (R = Solution constant)

π=

Q.27. Define the term Colligative properties.

Ans- All the properties of a solution which depend on the number of solute particles irrespective of the
nature of solute are called as colligative properties.

There are four types of colligative properties.

Relative lowering in vapour pressure

Elevation in boiling point
Depression in freezing point
Osmotic pressure.
1.Relative lowering in vapour pressure- the relative lowering of vapor pressure of a solution having non-
volatile solutes is equal to the mole fraction of the solute.

2. Elevation in boiling point - The increase in the boiling point of a solvent upon the addition of a solute
is called as elevation in boiling point.

3.Depression in freezing point - The freezing point of the solvent in a solution will be less than the
freezing point of the pure solvent whether the solution contains a non-volatile solute.

4. Osmotic pressure - It is the external pressure that needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the entry
of the solvent through semi-permeable membrane.It is represented by symbol (π).
