A solution contains two isomers, n-propyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol, at 25°C. The total vapor pressure is 38.6 torr. What ar

e the mole fractions of each alcohol in the liquid and in the vapor phase? The vapor pressures are 21.0 torr for n-propyl alcohol and 45.2 torr for isopropyl alcohol.

Answer:

Mole fraction of alcohols in liquid phase x_1=0.2727\& x_2=0.7273.

Mole fraction of alcohols in vapor phase y_1=0.1468\& y_2=0.8516.

Explanation:

The total vapor pressure of the solution = p =38.6 Torr

Partial vapor pressure of the  n-propyl alcohol =p^{o}_1=21.0 Torr

Partial vapor pressure of the isopropyl alcohol =p^{o}_2=45.2 Torr

p=x_1\times p^{o}_1+x_2\times p^{o}_2  (Raoult's Law)

p=x_1\times p^{o}_1+(1-x_1)\times p^{o}_2

38.6 Torr=x_1\times 21.0 Torr+(1-x_1)\times 45.2 Torr

x_1=0.2727

x_2=1-0.2727=0.7273

x_1\& x_2 is mole fraction in liquid phase.

Mole fraction of components in vapor phase y_1\& y_2

p_1=y_1\times p (Dalton's law of partial pressure)

y_1=\frac{p_1}{38.6 Torr}=\frac{p^{o}_1\times x_1}{38.6 Torr}

y_1=\frac{21.0 Torr\times 0.2727}{38.6 Torr}=0.1468

y_1=\frac{p_2}{38.6 Torr}=\frac{p^{o}_2\times x_2}{38.6 Torr}

y_2=\frac{45.2 Torr\times 0.7273}{38.6 Torr}=0.8516

Mole fraction of alcohols in vapor phase y_1=0.1468\& y_2=0.8516

The following substances dissolve when added to water. Classify the substances according to the strongest solute-solvent interac
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

CuCl2-Ion-dipole forces

CuSO4-Ion-dipole forces

NH3-Dipole-dipole forces

CH3OH-Dipole-dipole forces

Explanation:

Water consists of a dipole. The water molecule contains a positive end and a negative end. The positive ion attracts the negative dipole of water while the positive dipole in water interacts with the negative ion of an ionic substance. This explains the dissolution of ionic substances in water.

Copper II chloride and copper sulphate are ionic substances hence they dissolve by the mechanism described above.

Molecules consisting of dipoles dissolves by interaction of the molecule's dipoles with the dipoles in water. For example, methanol interacts with water through hydrogen bonding which is involves molecular dipoles
