Solutions Question 353

Question: The difference between the boiling point and freezing point of an aqueous solution containing sucrose (molecular wt=342gmole1 ) in 100 g of water is 105C . If Kf and Kb of water are 1.86 and 0.51Kkgmol1 respectively, the weight of sucrose in the solution is about

Options:

A) 34.2 g

B) 342 g

C) 7.2 g

D) 72 g

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

(100+ΔTb)(0ΔTf)=105

ΔTb+ΔTf=5

m(Kb+Kf)=5

m=52.37 i.e., 52.37 moles in 1000 g water (or) 52.37×10 moles in 100 g water
Wt. of sucrose =52.37×10×342=72g
