The mass of non-volatile, non-elctrolyte solute (molar mass \(= 50\,g\,mol^{- 1})\)  needed to be dissolved in \(114\,g\)  octane to reduce its vapour pressure to \(75\%,\)  is .............. \(\mathrm{g}\)

  1. A \(37.5\)
  2. B \(75\)
  3. C \(150\)
  4. D \(50\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(150\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Molar mass of octane \(=\,114\,g/mol\) From the lowering of vapour pressure we have, \(\frac{{\Delta P}}{P} = \frac{{\frac{{{W_2}}}{{{M_2}}}}}{{\frac{{{W_2}}}{{{M_2}}} + \frac{{{W_1}}}{{{M_1}}}}}\)…
