Arrange the following solutions in order of their increasing boiling points
\(\left(\mathrm{i}\right){10}^{-4}\mathrm{M}\mathrm{NaCl}\\ \left(\mathrm{ii}\right){10}^{-4}\mathrm{M}\mathrm{Urea}\\ \left(\mathrm{iii}\right){10}^{-3}\mathrm{M}\mathrm{NaCl}\\ \left(\mathrm{iv}\right){10}^{-2}\mathrm{M}\mathrm{NaCl}\)
(ii) < (i) < (iii) < (iv)
\(∆{\mathrm{T}}_{\mathrm{b}}={\mathrm{iK}}_{\mathrm{b}}\mathrm{m}\)
\(∆{\mathrm{T}}_{\mathrm{b}}\alpha \mathrm{i}\times \mathrm{m}\)
For NaCl " i " = 2 and Urea " i " = 1
Higher the product of vant Hoff factor and concentration higher the boiling point.
i × C = (i) 2 × 10–4 (ii) 1 × 10–4 (iii) 2 × 10–3 (iv) 2 × 10–2
Hence the order for boiling point is: (ii) < (i) < (iii) < (iv)
The density of ' \(x\) ' \(\mathrm{M}\) solution (' \(x\) ' molar) of \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) is \(1.12\mathrm{g}{\mathrm{mL}}^{-1}\), while in molality, the concentration of the solution is \(3\mathrm{m}(3\mathrm{molal})\). Then \(x\) is
(Given : Molar mass of \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) is \(40\mathrm{g}/\mathrm{mol}\) )

-
Density of solution = 1.12 g/mL
-
Molality (m) = 3 mol/kg
-
Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol
-
Molarity (x) = ?
We are to find the molarity \(x\) (in mol/L) of NaOH.
Molality \(m=\frac{\text{mol of solute}}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}\)
Given:
\(\text{Molality}=3\text{ }\mathrm{m}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{/}\mathrm{k}\mathrm{g}\)
Let’s assume we have 1 kg (1000 g) of water. Then the number of moles of NaOH = 3 mol.
Mass of NaOH =
\(3\text{ }\text{mol}\times 40\text{ }\mathrm{g}\mathrm{/}\mathrm{m}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{l}=120\text{ }\mathrm{g}\)
So total mass of solution =
\(1000\text{ }\mathrm{g}\text{ (water)}+120\text{ }\mathrm{g}\text{ (NaOH)}=1120\text{ }\mathrm{g}\)
Given density = 1.12 g/mL
So for 1120 g of solution:
\(\text{Volume}=\frac{1120\text{ }\mathrm{g}}{1.12\text{ }\mathrm{g}\mathrm{/}\mathrm{m}\mathrm{L}}=1000\text{ }\mathrm{m}\mathrm{L}=1\text{ }\mathrm{L}\)
Molarity \(x=\frac{\text{mol of solute}}{\text{volume of solution in L}}\)
We have 3.0 mol NaOH in 1 L of solution
x = 3.0
Identify the mixture that shows positive deviations from Raoult's Law
(CH3)2CO + CS2
Mixing polar acetone with non-polar CS₂ weakens intermolecular attractions (A–B < A–A/B–B) → positive deviation from Raoult’s law.
The other pairs (acetone–chloroform, acetone–aniline, chloroform–benzene) form specific associations/H-bonding → negative deviation.
1.24 g of \(A{X}_{2}\) (molar mass \(124gmo{l}^{-1}\)) is dissolved in 1 kg of water to form a solution with boiling point of \(100.0156^\circ C\), while 25.4 g of \(A{Y}_{2}\) (molar mass \(250gmo{l}^{-1}\)) in 2 kg of water constitutes a solution with a boiling point of \(100.0260^\circ C\).
