Two alcohols, isopropyl alcohol and propyl alcohol, have the same molecular formula, C3H8O. A solution of the two that is two-th

irds by mass isopropyl alcohol has a vapor pressure of 0.110 atm at 313 K. A solution that is one-third by mass isopropyl alcohol has a vapor pressure of 0.089 atm at 313 K. 1. Calculate the vapor pressure of each pure alcohol at this temperature.2. Explain the difference given that the formula of propyl alcohol is CH3CH2CH2OH and that of isopropyl alcohol is (CH3)2CHOH.

Answer:

1.

Since both components of these solutions have the same molar mass, mole fractions would be the same as mass fractions.

0.110 atm = (2/3)(Pi) + (1/3)(Pn) [1]

0.089 atm = (1/3)(Pi) + (2/3)(Pn) [2]

2*[1] - [2]:

(2)(0.110) - 0.089 atm = Pi

Pi = 0.131 atm

2*[2] - [1]:

(2)(0.089) - 0.110 atm = Pn

Pn = 0.068 atm

2.

The hydroxyl (-OH) group on the end of a longer 1-propanol molecule makes it more polar than IPA. It follows that the intermolecular forces between 1-propanol are stronger than those of IPA and thus the vapor pressure of 1-propanol should be lower than IPA.

Which unit can be used to express the concentration of a solution?
exis [7]

Answer: (3) ppm

Explanation: Concentration is defined as the amount of solute dissolved in a known amount of the solvent or  a solution.

Parts per million (ppm) is used to express the concentration when a very small quantity of solute is present in a large quantity of the solution. It is defined as the mass of solute present in one milion (10^6) parts by mass of the solution.

ppm=\frac{\text {mass of Solute}}{\text {Mass of solution}}\times 10^6

L/s is used to express flow rate.

J/g is used to express energy per unit mass.

kPa is used to express pressure.

Which of the following will have the slowest rate of diffusion at a given temperature?
marysya [2.9K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Chlorine gas (Cl₂)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • According to the Graham's law of diffusion, the diffusion rate of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its density or molar mass.
  • Therefore, a lighter gas will diffuse faster at a given temperature compared to a heavy gas.
  • Consequently, the heavier a gas is then the denser it is and the slower it diffuses at a given temperature and vice versa.

In this case we are given gases, CI₂

, H₂,He and Ne.

  • We are required to identify the gas that will diffuse at the slowest rate.
  • In other words we are required to determine the heaviest gas.

Looking at the molar mass of the gases given;

Cl₂- 70.91 g/mol

H₂- 2.02 g/mol

He - 4.00 g/mol

Ne- 20.18 g/mol

Therefore, chlorine gas is the heaviest and thus will diffuse at the slowest rate among the choices given.
