A solution contains 21.1 grams of NaCl in 0.721 kg water at 25 °C. What is the vapor pressure of the solution?

Solutions

Expert Solution

vapor pressure of solution   = vapor pressure of solvent * mole fraction of solvent

Psolution   = P0 * X solvent

no of moles of water ( n water)   = 721/18   = 40.05moles

no of moles of NaCl ( n NaCl)     = 21.1/58.5   = 0.36 moles

mole fraction of water (Xwater)   = n water/n water + n NaCl

                                                     = 40.05/40.05 + 0.36

                                                      = 40.05/40.41   = 0.991

The vapor pressure of water at 250C    = 23.8 torr

Ps   = P0* Xsolvent

         = 23.8*0.991   = 23.586 torr   >>>answer
