Answer:
Mole fraction of solute is 0.0462
Explanation:
To solve this we use the colligative property of lowering vapor pressure.
First of all, we search for vapor pressure of pure water at 25°C = 23.8 Torr
Now, we convert the Torr to mmHg. Ratio is 1:1, so 23.8 Torr is 23.8 mmHg.
Formula for lowering vapor pressure is:
ΔP = P° . Xm
Where ΔP = P' (Vapor pressure of solution) - P° (Vapor pressure of pure solvent)
Xm = mole fraction
24.9 mmHg - 23.8 mmHg = 23mmHg . Xm
Xm = (24.9 mmHg - 23.8 mmHg) / 23mmHg
Xm = 0.0462
Question requires a change resulting in an increase in both forward and reverse reactions. Now lets discuss options one by one and see there impact on rate of reactions.
1) <span>A decrease in the concentration of the reactants:
When concentration of reactant is decreased it will shift the equilibrium in Backward direction, so resulting in increasing the backward reaction and decreasing the forward direction. Hence, this option is incorrect.
2) </span><span>A decrease in the surface area of the products:
Greater the surface Area greater is the chances of collision and greater will be the rate of reaction. As the surface area of products is decreased it will not favor the backward reaction. Hence again this statement is incorrect according to given statement.
3) </span><span>An increase in the temperature of the system:
An increase in temperature will shift the reaction in endothermic side. Hence, if the reaction is endothermic, an increase in temperature will increase the rate of forward direction or if the reaction is exothermic it will increase the rate of reverse direction. Hence, this option is correct according to given statement.
4) </span><span>An increase in the activation energy of the forward reaction:
An increase in Activation energy will decrease the rate of reaction, either it is forward or reverse. So this is incorrect.
Result:
Hence, the correct answer is,"</span>An increase in the temperature of the system".

Answer:
(d) soap.
Explanation:
A soap is obtained by alkaline hydrolysis of a fat to yield the soap and glycerol. This process is known as saponification.
A soap solution is usually basic. Since phenolphthalein turns pink in an alkaline solution, then when phenolphthalein is added to a soap solution, the solution soon turns pink because it is alkaline in nature.
As a matter of fact, a soap sometimes has almost the pH of baking soda!
