The vapour pressures of chloroform, (\(\text{CHCl}_3\)) and dichloromethane (\(\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2\)) at 298 K are 400 mm Hg and 615 mm Hg,respectively. What is the mole fraction of \(\text{CHCl}_3\) in vapour phase in solution prepared by mixing 30 g of \(\text{CHCl}_3\) and 45 g of \(\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2\) ?
- A 0.76
- B 0.23
- C 0.82
- D 0.18
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 0.23
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(n_{\text{CHCl}_3} = \frac{30 \text{ g}}{119.38 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.2513 \text{ mol}\) \(n_{\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2} = \frac{45 \text{ g}}{84.93 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.5309 \text{ mol}\)…

Replacement of a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon by an alkoxy or carboxyl group yields a class of compounds known as ethers. Ethers are classified as symmetrical or unsymmetrical on the basis of groups attached to the oxygen atoms. Diethyl ether, a symmetrical ether, has been widely used as an inhalation anesthetic. Ethers can be prepared by acid catalyzed intermolecular dehydration of alcohols and Williamson's synthesis. Acid catalyzed dehydration of alcohols is not generally preferred as it gives a mixture of elimination and substitution products. In Williamson's synthesis, an alkyl halide is allowed to react with sodium alkoxide. Ethers containing substituted Alkyl groups may also be prepared by this method. The C-O bond in ether is weakly polar and is cleaved under drastic conditions with excess of hydrogen halides. In electrophilic substitution, the alkoxy group deactivates the aromatic ring and directs the incoming group to ortho and para positions.

Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains- chain A and chain B, that are linked together by disulphide bridges. Some strains of Bacillus thuringiensis produce proteins that kill certain insects such as lepidopterans, coleopterans and dipterans. Bt toxin protein is converted into an active form of toxin due to the alkaline pH of the gut which solubilise the crystals. Transgenic animals that produce useful biological products can be created by the introduction of the portion of DNA (or genes) which codes for a particular product such as human protein (alpha-1-antitrypsin) used to treat emphysema. Plants, bacteria, fungi and animals whose genes have been altered by manipulation are called Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). GM plants have been useful in many ways. Genetic modification has: (i) made crops more tolerant to abiotic stresses. (ii) reduced reliance on chemical pesticides (pest-resistant crops). (iii) helped to reduce post harvest losses. (iv) increased efficiency of mineral usage by plants (this prevents early exhaustion of fertility of soil). (v) enhanced nutritional value of food.
