JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 -1. Solution and colligative properties

A solution at \(20\,^oC\) is composed of  \(1.5\,mol\) of benzene and \(3.5\,mol\) of toluene. If the vapour pressure of pure benzene and pure toluene at this temperature are \(74.7\,torr\) and \(22 .3\, torr,\) respectively, then the total vapour pressure of the solution and the benzene mole fraction in equilibrium with it will be, respectively

  1. A \(35.8\,torr\) and \(0.280\)
  2. B \(38.0\,torr\) and \(0.589\)
  3. C \(30.5\,torr\) and \(0.389\)
  4. D \(30.5\,torr\) and \(0.480\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(38.0\,torr\) and \(0.589\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Total \(V.P.\) of solution \(=\,P^o_Ax_A\,+\,P^o_Bx_B\) Given, \(P^o_A\,=\,74.7\,torr\), \(P^o_B\,=\,22.3\,torr\) \(n_{benzene}\,=\,1.5\,mol\), \(n_{toluene}\,=\,3.5\,mol\) \(n_{solution}\,=\,1.5+3.5=5\,mol\) \(X_A\,=\,\frac {n_{benzene}}{n_{solution}}\,=\,\frac {1.5}{5}\) Total…
