The vapour pressure of a solvent decreases by 10 mm of Hg when a non-volatile solute was added to the solvent. The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is 0.2. What should be the mole fraction of the solvent if…

At a particular temperature, the vapour pressures of two liquids A and B are respectively 120 and 180 mm of Hg respectively. If 2 moles of A and 3 moles of B are mixed to form an ideal solution, the vapour pressure of…

Assertion: Lowering of vapour pressure is directly proportional to osmotic pressure of the solution. Reason: Osmotic pressure is a colligative property.

Assertion: If one component of a solution obeys Raoult’s law over a certain range of composition, the other component will not obey Henry’s law in that range. Reason: Raoult’s law is a special case of Henry’s law.

Which observation(s) reflect(s) colligative properties? (i) A 0.5 m NaBr solution has a higher vapour pressure than a 0.5 m BaCl₂ solution at the same temperature (ii) Pure water freezes at the higher temperature than…

Assertion: If a liquid solute more volatile than the solvent is added to the solvent, the vapour pressure of the solution may increase. Reason: In the presence of a more volatile liquid solute, only the solute will fo…

Assertion: The water pouch of instant cold pack for treating athletic injuries breaks when squeezed and NH₄NO₃ dissolves lowering the temperature. Reason: Addition of non-volatile solute into solvent results into depr…

Which of the following 0.10 m aqueous solutions will have the lowest freezing point?

An aqueous solution of NaCl freezes at –0.186 °C. Given that 0.512 H O b K K kg mol and 1.86 H O f K K kg mol , the elevation in boiling point of this solution is

Assertion: If red blood cells were removed from the body and placed in pure water, pressure inside the cells increases. Reason: The concentration of salt content in the cells increases.
