Answer:
44 g
Explanation:
The formula for the number of moles (n) is equal to .
Since we need to find the mass, we derive it from the formula of the number of moles and we get that mass = n x molecular weight .
The molecular weight of = 12 g/mol (from the carbon) + 19x4 g/mol (from the 4 fluorine atoms)= 88 g/mol
We plug in the numbers in the derived formula for the mass and we get :
mass = n x molecular weight = 0.5 mol x 88 g/mol = 44 g
The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
The common laboratory solvent chloroform is often used to purify substances dissolved in it. The vapor pressure of chloroform, CHCl₃, is 173.11 mm Hg at 25°C.
In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound and found that when 7.229 grams of the compound were dissolved in 207.8 grams of chloroform, the vapor pressure of the solution was 170.51 mm Hg. The compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte. What is the molecular weight of this compound?
<u>Answer:</u> The molecular mass of the compound is 481.9 g/mol
<u>Explanation:</u>
The equation used to calculate relative lowering of vapor pressure follows:
where,
= relative lowering in vapor pressure
i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolytes)
= mole fraction of solute = ?
= vapor pressure of pure chloroform = 173.11 mmHg
= vapor pressure of solution = 170.51 mmHg
Putting values in above equation, we get:
This means that 0.0150 moles of compound is present in the solution
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Moles of compound = 0.0150 moles
Given mass of compound = 7.229 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the molecular mass of the compound is 481.9 g/mol
