The vapor pressure of a solvent is a colligative property. That means that it depends on the number of particles of the solvent in solution and not the nature of the solute dissolved.

You have to use Raoult's law, which states that the vapor pressure of a solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure solvent times the molar fraction of the solvent, i.e.:

     P = P°solv * X solv

X solv = number of moles of solvent / number of moles of solution

solvent = water

solute = glycerin

number of moles of water = mass of water / molar mass of water

number of moles of water = 1000 g / 18.02 g/mol = 55.49 mol

number of moles of glycerine = mass of glycerin / molar mass of glycerin

number of moles of glycerin = 180g / 92.09 g/mol = 1.955 mol

X solv = 55.49 mol / (55.49 mol + 1.955 mol) = 0.966

P = 23.8 torr * 0.966 = 22.99 torr = 23.0 torr

=> Vapor pressure lowering = 23.8 torr - 23.0 torr = 0.8 torr

Answer: 0.8 torr.

Draw the Lewis structure for methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) in the box below. Then predict which would have the higher boiling
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Ethane would have a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have <u>8 electrons</u> (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have <u>4 valence electrons</u>, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.

Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an <u>additional carbon</u>. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have <u>more area of interaction</u> for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give <u>more energy</u> to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.

I hope it helps!
