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

At \(300\, K\), the vapour pressure of a solution containing \(1\) mole of \(n-\)hexane and \(3\) moles of \(n-\)heptane is \(550\, mm\) of \(Hg\). At the same temperature, if one more mole of n-heptane is added to this solution, the vapour pressure of the solution increases by \(10\, mm\) of \(Hg\). What is the vapour pressure in \(mm Hg\) of \(n-\)heptane in its pure state..........\(?\)

  1. A \(600\)
  2. B \(620\)
  3. C \(590\)
  4. D \(628\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(600\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(550= P _{ A }^{\circ} \times \frac{1}{4}+ P _{ B }^{\circ} \times \frac{3}{4}\) \(2200= P _{ A }^{\circ}+3 P _{ B }^{\circ}\)\(....(i)\) \(2800= P _{ A }^{\circ}+4 P _{ B }^{\circ}\)\(....(ii)\) \(560= P _{ A }^{\circ} \times \frac{1}{5}+ P _{ B }^{\circ} \times \frac{4}{5}\)…
