  • A
    It will be equal to the vapour pressure of pure water
  • B
    It will be less than the vapour pressure of pure water
  • C
    It will be greater than the vapour pressure of pure water
  • D
    It will be very large

The vapour pressure of a solvent decreases by $10 \ mm$ of $Hg$ when a non-volatile solute is added to the solvent. The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is $0.2$. What should be the mole fraction of the solvent if the decrease in the vapour pressure is to be $20 \ mm$ of $Hg$?

When a certain amount of solid $A$ is dissolved in $100 \ g$ of water at $25^{\circ} \ C$ to make a dilute solution,the vapour pressure of the solution is reduced to one-half of that of pure water. The vapour pressure of pure water is $23.76 \ mm \ Hg$. The number of moles of solute $A$ added is $...........$ (Nearest Integer).

In an experiment,$1 \ g$ of a non-volatile solute was dissolved in $100 \ g$ of acetone (molar mass $= 58 \ g/mol$) at $298 \ K$. The vapour pressure of the solution was found to be $192.5 \ mm \ Hg$. The molecular weight of the solute is (vapour pressure of pure acetone $= 195 \ mm \ Hg$). (in $.24$)

The vapour pressure of a solvent decreases by $20 \ mm$ of $Hg$ when a non-volatile solute is added to the solvent. The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is $0.5$. What should be the mole fraction of the solvent for the decrease in the vapour pressure to be $10 \ mm$ of $Hg$?

At a temperature of $300 \ K$,if a liquid is transferred from a small test tube to a large beaker,what will be the change in its vapor pressure?
