Vapour pressure of \(\text{CHCl}_3\) and \(\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2\) at 298 K are 200 mmHg and 415 mmHg respectively.
Calculate the vapour pressure of the solution prepared by mixing 25.5 g of \(\text{CHCl}_3\) and 40 g of \(\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2\) at 298 K.

  1. A 308.2 mmHg
  2. B 297.4 mmHg
  3. C 327.6 mmHg
  4. D 347.9 mmHg
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 347.9 mmHg

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(n_{\text{CHCl}_3} = \frac{25.5 \text{ g}}{119.5 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.2134 \text{ mol}\) \(n_{\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2} = \frac{40 \text{ g}}{85 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.4706 \text{ mol}\) \(X_{\text{CHCl}_3} = \frac{0.2134}{0.2134 + 0.4706} = \frac{0.2134}{0.6840} = 0.3120\)…
