Problem 81

Beaker \(\mathrm{A}\) has \(1.00 \mathrm{~mol}\) of chloroform, \(\mathrm{CHCl}_{3}\), at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Beaker \(\mathrm{B}\) has \(1.00 \mathrm{~mol}\) of carbon tetrachloride, \(\mathrm{CCl}_{4}\), also at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Equal masses of a nonvolatile, nonreactive solute are added to both beakers. In answering the questions below, the following data may be helpful. $$ \begin{array}{lll} \hline & \mathrm{CHCl}_{3}(\mathrm{~A}) & \mathrm{cCl}_{4}(\mathrm{~B}) \\ \hline \text { Vapor pressure at } 27^{\circ} \mathrm{C} & 0.276 \text { atm } & 0.164 \text { atm } \\ \text { Boiling point } & 61.26^{\circ} \mathrm{C} & 76.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \\\ k_{\mathrm{b}}\left({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}\right) & 3.63 & 5.03 \\\ \hline \end{array} $$ Write \(<,>,=\), or more information needed in the blanks provided. (a) Vapor pressure of solvent over beaker B of solvent over beaker \(\mathrm{A}\). (b) Boiling point of solution in beaker \(A\) boiling point of solution in beaker B. (c) Vapor pressure of pure \(\mathrm{CHCl}_{3} \longrightarrow\) vapor pressure of solvent over beaker \(\mathrm{A}\). (d) Vapor pressure lowering of solvent in beaker A pressure lowering of solvent in beaker B. (e) Mole fraction of solute in beaker \(\mathrm{A}\) mole fraction of solute in beaker \(\mathrm{B}\).

Problem 83

A solution contains \(158.2 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{KOH}\) per liter; its density is \(1.13 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}\). A lab technician wants to prepare \(0.250 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{KOH}\), starting with \(100.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) of this solution. How much water or solid KOH should be added to the \(100.0-\mathrm{mL}\) portion?

Problem 84

Show that the following relation is generally valid for all solutions: $$ \text { molality }=\frac{\text { molarity }}{d-\frac{\mathrm{MM}(\mathrm{molarity})}{1000}} $$ where \(d\) is solution density \(\left(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}\right)\) and \(\mathrm{MM}\) is the molar mass of the solute. Using this equation, explain why molality approaches molarity in dilute solution when water is the solvent, but not with other solvents.

Problem 85

The water-soluble nonelectrolyte \(\mathrm{X}\) has a molar mass of \(410 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\). A \(0.100\) -g mixture containing this substance and sugar \((\mathrm{MM}=342 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol})\) is added to \(1.00 \mathrm{~g}\) of water to give a solution whose freezing point is \(-0.500^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Estimate the mass percent of \(\mathrm{X}\) in the mixture.

Problem 87

When water is added to a mixture of aluminum metal and sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas is produced. This is the reaction used in commercial drain cleaners: $$ 2 \mathrm{Al}(s)+6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)+2 \mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OH})^{4-}(a q)+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g) $$ A sufficient amount of water is added to \(49.92 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) to make \(0.600 \mathrm{~L}\) of solution; \(41.28 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{Al}\) is added to this solution and hydrogen gas is formed. (a) Calculate the molarity of the initial \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) solution. (b) How many moles of hydrogen were formed? (c) The hydrogen was collected over water at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(758.6 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}\). The vapor pressure of water at this temperature is \(23.8 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}\). What volume of hydrogen was generated?

4 step solution

Problem 88

It is found experimentally that the volume of a gas that dissolves in a given amount of water is independent of the pressure of the gas; that is, if \(5 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\) of a gas dissolves in \(100 \mathrm{~g}\) of water at 1 atm pressure, \(5 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\) will dissolve at a pressure of 2 atm, 5 atm, 10 atm, .... Show that this relationship follows logically from Henry's law and the ideal gas law.
