When a non-volatile solute is added to the solvent, the vapour pressure of the solvent decreases by 10 mm of Hg . The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is 0.2 . What would be the mole fraction of the solvent if decrease in vapour pressure is 20 mm of Hg ?
- A 0.8
- B 0.4
- C 0.2
- D 0.6
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 0.6
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\begin{aligned} & \because \mathrm{P}^{\circ}-\mathrm{P} \propto \mathrm{X}_{\text {solute }} \\ & \text { and } \because 10 \propto 0.2 \\ & \therefore 20 \propto 0.4 \\ & \therefore \mathrm{X}_{\text {solvent }}=1-\mathrm{X}_{\text {solute }} \\ & \quad=1-0.4 \\ &…
