There should be a small amount of play in the wheel when the steering is locked. Gently pull the key from the ignition while you slowly jiggle the steering wheel back and forth. If this is the cause of the problem, the key should come out after a little effort.
Answer:
0.144 kg of water
Explanation:
From Raoult's law,
Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8
Let the moles of solvent (water) be y
Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole
Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol
Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution
0.8 = y/(y + 2)
y = 0.8(y + 2)
y = 0.8y + 1.6
y - 0.8y = 1.6
0.2y = 1.6
y = 1.6/0.2 = 8
Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol
Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg
