Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 14SAQ
A solution is an equimolar mixture of two volatile components A and B. Pure A has a vapor
pressure of 50 torr, and pure B has a vapor pressure of 100 torr. The vapor pressure of the
mixture is 85 torr. What can you conclude about the relative strengths of the intermolecular
forces between particles of A and B (relative to those between particles of A and those between
particles of B)?
- The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are weakerthan those betweenparticles of A and those between particles of B.
- The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are the same as those betweenparticles of A and those between particles of B.
- The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are strongerthan those betweenparticles of A and those between particles of B.
- Nothing can be concluded about the relative strengths of intermolecular forces from thisobservation.

- What is the usual solubility behavior of an ionic compound in water when the temperature is raised? Give an example of an exception to this behavior.arrow_forwardA forensic chemist is given a white solid that is suspected of being pure cocaine (C17H21NO4, molar mass = 303.35 g/mol). She dissolves 1.22 0.01 g of the solid in 15.60 0.01 g benzene. The freezing point is lowered by 1.32 0.04C. a. What is the molar mass of the substance? Assuming that the percent uncertainty in the calculated molar mass is the same as the percent uncertainty in the temperature change, calculate the uncertainty in the molar mass. b. Could the chemist unequivocally state that the substance is cocaine? For example, is the uncertainty small enough to distinguish cocaine from codeine (C18H21NO3, molar mass = 299.36 g/mol)? c. Assuming that the absolute uncertainties in the measurements of temperature and mass remain unchanged, how could the chemist improve the precision of her results?arrow_forwardTwo samples of sodium chloride solutions are brought to a boil on a stove. One of the solutions boils at 100.10C and the other at 100.15C. a Which of the solutions is more concentrated? b Which of the solutions would have a lower freezing point? c If you split the solution that boils at 100.1C into two portions, how would the boiling points of the samples compare? Which of the following statements do you agree with regarding the determination of your answer for part c? I. The question cannot be answered with certainty without knowing the volumes of each portion. II. Making the necessary assumption that the two samples have equal volumes, I was able to correctly answer the question. III. The volumes that the sample was split into are irrelevant when determining the correct answer.arrow_forward
- Consider two hypothetical pure substances, AB(s) and XY(s). When equal molar amounts of these substances are placed in separate 500-mL samples of water, they undergo the following reactions: AB(s)A+(aq)+B(aq)XY(s)XY(aq) a Which solution would you expect to have the lower boiling point? Why? b Would you expect the vapor pressures of the two solutions to be equal? If not, which one would you expect to have the higher vapor pressure? c Describe a procedure that would make the two solutions have the same boiling point. d If you took 250 mL of the AB(aq) solution prepared above, would it have the same boiling point as the original solution? Be sure to explain your answer. e The container of XY(aq) is left out on the bench top for several days, which allows some of the water to evaporate from the solution. How would the melting point of this solution compare to the melting point of the original solution?arrow_forward1. Vapor pressure: Arrange the following aqueous solutions in order of increasing vapor pressure at 25°C: 0.35 m C2H4(OH)2 (ethylene glycol, nonvolatile solute); 0.50 m sugar; 0.20 m KBr; and 0.20 m Na2SO4. C2H4(OH)2 < sugar < KBr < Na2SO4 Na2SO4 < sugar < KBr < C2H4(OH)2 sugar < C2H4(OH)2 < KBr < Na2SO4 KBr < sugar < Na2SO4 < C2H4(OH)2arrow_forwardYou have read that adding a solute to a solvent can both increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. A friend of yours explains it to you like this: The solute and solvent can be like salt in water. The salt gets in the way of freezing in that it blocks the water molecules from joining together. The salt acts like a strong bond holding the water molecules together so that it is harder to boil. What do you say to your friend?arrow_forward
