Answer:

  • <em>The vapor pressure of the solution at 25°C is </em><u><em>23.6 mmHg</em></u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

  • Mass of solute, sucroese, m₁ = 40.0 g
  • Mass of solvent, water, m₂ = 250. g
  • Vapor pressure of solution, p = ?
  • Vapor pressure of pure water, p⁰ = 23.76 mm Hg

<u>2) Principles and formulae:</u>

  • Raoult's law states that the vapor pressure of a solution is equal to the mole fraction of the solvent times the vapor pressure of the pure liquid.

        p = X p⁰

       

<u>3) Solution:</u>

a) <u>Mole fraction of the solvent (water)</u>

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

  • number of moles of solvent, n₁ = mass in grams / molar mass

         n₁ = 250. g / 18.015 g/mol = 13.88 moles

  • number of moles of solute, n₂ = mass in grams / molar mass

        n₂ = 40.0 g / 342,3 g/mol = 0.12 moles

  • total number of moles, n₁ + n₂ = 13.88 moles + 0.12 moles = 14.0 moles

  • moles fraction of water, X = 13.88 moles / 14.0 moles = 0.99

b) <u>Vapor pressure of the solution</u>:

  • p = p⁰ X = 23.76 mmHg × 0.99 = 23.56 mm Hg

Rounding to three significant figures: 23.6 mm Hg.

The vapor pressure of the solution : P = <u>23.57 mmHg</u>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Solution properties are the properties of a solution that don't depend on the type of solute but only on the concentration of the solute.

Solution properties of electrolyte solutions differ from non-electrolyte solutions because electrolyte solutions contain a greater number of particles because electrolytes break down into ions. So the Solution properties of electrolytes is greater than non-electrolytes.

The term is used in the Solution properties

  • 1. molal

that is, the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent

\large {\boxed {\bold {m = mole. \frac {1000} {mass \: of \: solvent (in \: grams)}}}

  • 2. mole fraction

the ratio of the number of moles of solute to the mole of solution

\large {\boxed {\bold {Xa = \frac {na} {na + nb}}}

  • 3. Vapor pressure

Vapor pressure depends on the mole fraction of the components in the solution

P = Xs. P °

P = vapor pressure solution

P ° = pure vapor pressure

Xs = mole fraction solvent

ΔP = P ° - P where

ΔP = change in vapor pressure

Molar mass of sucrose-C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁: 342  g/mole

mole sucrose = 40.0 g : 342 = 0.116

Molar mass of water = 18

mole water = 250 g : 18 = 13.88

Xs = mole fraction solvent = mole of water : total mole

Xs = 13.88 : (13.88 + 0.116)

Xs = 0.992

P° = 23.76 mm Hg

so that

P = 0.992. 23.76

P = 23.57 mmHg

Why must the spectrophotometer cell be removed from the instrument between readings?
Natali [406]

Spectrophotometric cell or a cuvette is made of quartz for UV spectrophotometers. These cuvettes are used as sample holders for the spectrophotometric determination of the analytes. The material that makes up the cuvette and the condition of the cuvette is to be taken care of in order to avoid erroneous absorbance readings. The sample holder or the cuvette must be removed from the spectrophotometer in between two successive readings. This is to ensure that the light sensing detector of the instrument is not affected.
