Predict whether van’t Hoff factor, (i) is less than one or greater than one in the following: (i) CH3COOH dissolved in water. (ii) CH3COOH dissolved in benzene.

Predict whether van’t Hoff factor, (i) is less than one or greater than one in the following:

(i) CH3COOH dissolved in water.

(ii) CH3COOH dissolved in benzene.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer : (i) i > 1, (ii) i < 1

Explanation :

(i) It will be more than 1 because CH3COOH will dissociate into CH3COO– and H+.

reaction:

CH3COOH -----> CH3COO- + H+

In the above case the van't Hoff factor is should be greater than one i.e i >1.

(ii) CH3COOH dissolved in benzene will form dimer i.e. undergo association, therefore, i < 1.

(i) i > 1

(ii) i < 1
