The mass of a non-volatile solute of molar mass \(60 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) that should be dissolved in \(126 \mathrm{~g}\) of water to reduce its vapour pressure to \(99 \%\) will be

  1. A \(2.8 \mathrm{~g}\)
  2. B \(5.6 \mathrm{~g}\)
  3. C \(8.4 \mathrm{~g}\)
  4. D \(4.2 \mathrm{~g}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(4.2 \mathrm{~g}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, molar mass of solute, \(\mu_{2}=60 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\) Mass of water \(\left(W_{1}\right)=126 \mathrm{~g}^{\circ}\) Molar mass of water \(\left(M_{1}\right)=18 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\) \(p_{\text {Solution }}\left(p_{s}\right)=0.99 p^{\circ}\) Relative…
