 Which of the following components form an ideal solution?
  • a)
    Ethyl alcohol and benzene
  • b)
    Acetone and aniline
  • c)
    Water and nitric acid
  • d)
    Benzene and toluene
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Swati Verma answered
The correct answer is option D
The solutions which obey Raoult's law over the entire range of concentration are known as ideal solutions.
For ideal solution, the enthalpy of mixing of the pure components to form the solution is zero and the volume of mixing is also zero, i.e.,
mix​H=0 and △mix​V=0
Thus, this type of solution is a solution of benzene and toluene.

 Which of the following gases will be least soluble in water?
  • a)
    Hydrogen chloride
  • b)
    Sulphur dioxide
  • c)
    Ammonia
  • d)
    Nitrogen
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Nikita Singh answered
The correct answer is Option D.
The reason for poor solubility of N2 in water is that they just occupy the intermolecular spaces and stay there by interaction with its surrounding molecules by weak van der Waals forces.So it is least soluble while other gases form hydrogen bonds with water.

The level of contamination of chloroform was found to be 15 ppm. It means 15 g of chloroform is present in how many grams of solution?
  • a)
    1000 g
  • b)
    106 g
  • c)
    100 g
  • d)
    1.0 g
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Lavanya Menon answered
1 ppm is equivalent to 1 part out of 1 million (106) parts.
∴ Mass percent of 15 ppm chloroform in water 
⇒ 1.5 x 10-3 g chloroform present in 100 g water
Thus, 15g chloroform will be present in water 

Mole fraction of glycerine, C3H5(OH)3 in a solution containing 36 gm of water and 46 gm of glycerine is:
  • a)
    0.40
  • b)
    0.20
  • c)
    0.46
  • d)
    0.36
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Naina Bansal answered
No. of moles of glycerine= 46/92 (where 92 is M.M. of glycerine)
                                        = 0.5moles
no. of moles of water= 36/18(where 18 is M.M. of water)
                                 = 2moles
so mole fraction oh glycerine = No. of moles of glycerine/No. of moles of glycerine + No. of moles of water
                                              = 0.5/2 + 0.5
                                              = 0.20

 According to Henry’s Law at a constant temperature the solubility of gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the
  • a)
    Mass of gas
  • b)
    Density of gas
     
  • c)
    Volume of gas
  • d)
    Pressure of gas
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Mira Sharma answered
According to Henry’s law the solubility of gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas
Mathematically mass of the dissolved gas α pressure of the gas
let mass of dissolved gas in unit volume  = m
pressure of gas = p
to remove sign of proportional we us a constant here  KH is Henry’s law constant
so we get
m = KH*p  
we can measure mass of solute in term of molar fraction also
Hence our formula will
X = KH*p 
 
Application:
1. In Packing of soda cans :- To increase the solubility of CO2 gas in soda water , bottles of soda water is always packed under higher pressure. 
2. In Deep see diving: - As nitrogen is a more soluble gas in our blood and at deep see pressure increase so its solubility also increases, when scuba diver tries to come rapidly toward the surface of water, pressure decreased and Dissolved N2 gas comes back from the blood and make bubbles in his veins. It because bends .To avoid bends diver use oxygen diluted with helium because helium is less soluble in blood. 
 
Henry's Law states that: The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of that gas above the surface of the solution.

 Some solute particles in solution collide with other solid solute particles present and get separated out of solution. This process is known as
  • a)
    Condensation
  • b)
    Dissolution
  • c)
    Sublimation
  • d)
    Crystalisation
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajesh Gupta answered
The correct answer is option D
Some solute particles in solution collide with the solid solute particles and get separated out of solution. This process is called crystallization. A stage is reached when the two processes take place at the same rate. Under such conditions, the number of solute particles going into solution will be equal to the solute particles separating out and a state of dynamic equilibrium is achieved.

 Which expression correctly represents Henry’s Law?
  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

The Henry's law constant (KH) (also called the air–water partition coefficient) is the ratio of a compound's partial pressure in air to the concentration of the compound in water at a given temperature. Values for Henry's law constants are expressed in units of atmospheres for air to moles per cubic meter for water (atm-m3/mol) or in a dimensionless unit described as KH′ = KH/(RT) where KH′ is the dimensionless Henry's law constant, KH is the Henry's law constant (atm-m3/mol), R is the ideal gas constant (8.20575 x 10−5 atm-m3/mol-K) and T is the water temperature (K). As a rule of thumb, compounds with a Henry's law constant greater than 10−3 atm-m3/mol and a molecular weight less than 200 grams per mole are considered volatile.

In a solution if the solute is non- volatile, pA0 is the vapour pressure of pure solvent A and the mole fraction of A is xA , the vapour pressure of the solvent (pA) will be :
  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Sushil Kumar answered
The correct answer is option D
 
When a non - volatile solute is added into a volatile solvent to form an ideal solution. there will be a decrease in vapour pressure to that of solvent. According to roult's law the decrease in vapour is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solute in an ideal solution.
 

Can you explain the answer of this question below:

 Calculate the molality of 12.5% w/w sulphuric acid?

  • A:

    2.85m

  • B:

    3.15m

  • C:

    1.45m

  • D:

    2.50m

The answer is c.

Arun Khanna answered
12.5% w/w means 12.5 g in 100 g of solution.
Weight of solvent = 100 g – 12.5 g= 87.5 g. Number of moles of sulphuric acid = 12.5/ 98 =0.127 mol
So molality = 0.127 X 1000/87.5 = 1.45 m

A sample of 300.0 g of drinking water is found to contain 38 mg Pb. What this concentration in parts per million?
  • a)
    3 x 102 ppm
  • b)
    6.5 m
  • c)
    130 ppm Pb
  • d)
    21 ppm
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Mira Sharma answered
We use parts per million to express the concentrations of solutions that contain very, very small amounts, often called trace amounts, of a given solute.

More specifically, a solution's concentration in parts per millions tells you the number of parts of solute present for every

10^6=1,000,000


parts of solution. You can thus say that a 1 ppm
solution will contain exactly 1 g of solute for every 10^6g of solution.

In this case, you know that you have
38 mg Pb x (1 g/10^3 mg) = 3.8 x 10^-2 g Pb
in exactly

300.0 g = 3.000 x 10^2 g solution

This means that you can use this known composition as a conversion factor to scale up the mass of the solution to 
10^6 g solution x (3.8 x 10^-2 g Pb/3.000 x 10^2 g solution) 
= 130 g solution


Since this represents the mass of lead present in exactly 10^6 g of solution, you can say that the solution has a concentration of:

concentration (ppm) = 130 ppm Pb

 Calculate the molality of 12.5% w/w sulphuric acid?
  • a)
    2.85m
  • b)
    3.15m
  • c)
    1.45m
  • d)
    2.50m
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Nandini Patel answered
12.5% w/w means 12.5 g in 100 g of solution.

Weight of solvent = 100 g – 12.5 g= 87.5 g. Number of moles of sulphuric acid = 12.5/ 98 =0.127 mol

So molality = 0.127x1000/87.5 = 1.45 m

Solutions which show positive or negative deviation from the Raoult’s law are called
  • a)
    Ideal solutions
  • b)
    True solutions
  • c)
    Non Ideal solutions
  • d)
    Homogeneous solutions
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

's law are:

Positive deviation: When the vapour pressure of the solution is higher than predicted by Raoult's law, it is known as positive deviation. This occurs when the interactions between the solvent and solute molecules are weaker than those between the solvent molecules. As a result, the solute molecules tend to escape into the vapour phase more readily, leading to higher vapour pressure. Examples of positive deviation include acetone-chloroform and ethanol-water mixtures.

Negative deviation: When the vapour pressure of the solution is lower than predicted by Raoult's law, it is known as negative deviation. This occurs when the interactions between the solvent and solute molecules are stronger than those between the solvent molecules. As a result, the solute molecules tend to remain in the liquid phase more readily, leading to lower vapour pressure. Examples of negative deviation include benzene-toluene and ethanol-ethyl acetate mixtures.

 A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved at the given temperature and pressure is called a
  • a)
    Unsaturated solution
  • b)
    Dilute solution
  • c)
    Solid solution
  • d)
    Saturated solution
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Hansa Sharma answered
The correct answer is Option D.
In a saturated solution, more solute cannot be dissolved at a given temperature.
This is because, the solute dissolves in a solvent because of space between particles of solvent but on continuous addition of solute, the space between the solvent particles gets fulfilled. Thus no more solute particle can dissolve in a solvent.

    Vapour pressure of the solution
  • c)
    Nature of the solvent
  • d)
    Heat of solution of the solute in the solvent

Vijay Bansal answered
Molal depression constant : It is defined as the depression in freezing point when the molality of the solution is unity, i.e., one mole of the solute is dissolved in 1000 gram or 1 kilogram of the solvent. Molality : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in 1 kilogram of solvent.

Solution is defined as
  • a)
    Heterogeneous mixture
  • b)
    Compound of two elements
  • c)
    Homogeneous mixture
  • d)
    Compound of more than two elements
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Vijay Bansal answered
A homogeneous mixture is a solid, liquid, or gaseous mixture that has the same proportions of its components throughout any given sample. Conversely, a heterogeneous mixture has components whose proportions vary throughout the sample.

 Which of the following solutions shows negative deviation from Raoult’s law?
  • a)
    Acetone and chloroform
  • b)
    Acetone and carbon disulphide
  • c)
    Ethyl alcohol and cyclohexane
  • d)
    Benzene and toluene
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Naina Bansal answered
On mixing acetone and chloroform, hydrogen bond is formed between them. Due to this vapour pressure of the solution formed by them decreases. Hence solution shows negative deviation from Raoult’s law.

Which of the following solutions of H2SO4 is more concentrated?
  • a)
    1 Molar solution
  • b)
    1 molal solution
  • c)
    1 normal solution
  • d)
    NONE
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Alok Mehta answered
1M solution of H2SO4 means that 1 gram-molecular weight of H2SO4 is dissolved in 1 litre of water Molecular weight of H2SO4 is 2+32+64=98 which means that in 1M solution of H2SO4, 98 g of H2SO4 are dissolved in 1 litre of water whereas 1N solution of H2SO4, has 1gram equivalent weight of H2SO4 dissolved in 1 litre of water Now, the Equivalent wt of H2SO4 is 98/2=49 Therefore in 1N solution of H2SO4, 49 gram of H2SO4 are dissolved in 1 litre of water Comparing both the above solutions we can say that 1M solution of H2SO4 is more concentrated than 1N solution of H2SO4

Molality is preferred over molarity in handling solutions in chemistry laboratory because

    Molality changes with pressure
  • b)
    Molarity changes with temperature
  • c)
    Molality changes with temperature
  • d)
    Molarity changes with pressure
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Suresh Kumar answered
Molarity is inversely proportional to volume . and
we know that from charles law i.e. volume is directly proportional to temperature.This implies that molarity is inversely proportional to temperature. Whereas molality is independent of temperature. Hence;option B is true.

 For a binary ideal solution, the total pressure of the solution is given as
  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Geetika Shah answered
The correct option C
The partial vapour pressure of each component of the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction present in isolation.
Thus, for component 1
p1 ∝ x1 
And  p1 = pо1 x1
Where pо1 is the vapour pressure of pure component 1 at the same temperature.
Similarly, for component 2
p2 = pо2 x2
Where pо2 represents the vapour pressure of the pure component 2.
According to Dalton’s law of partial pressure, the total pressure ptotal over the solution phase in the container will be the sum of the partial pressures of the components of the solution and is given as:
ptotal =p1 + p2
Substituting the values of  p1 and p2, we get.
ptotal = x1p10 + x2p20
=(1-x2)p10 + x2p20
=p10  +(p20 - p10) x2

 When a non-volatile solute is dissolved in a solvent, the relative lowering of vapour pressure is equal to:
  • a)
    Mole fraction of solute
  • b)
    Molality of solution
  • c)
    Mole fraction of solvent
  • d)
    Molarity of solution
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Anjana Sharma answered
The vapor pressure of a solvent is lowered when a non-volatile solute is dissolved in it to form a solution. The vapor pressure lowering relative to pure solvent is , which is proportional to the mole fraction of solute.
