Solutions Question 60

Question: A solution is obtained by dissolving 12 g of urea (mol.wt.60) in a litre of water. Another solution is obtained by dissolving 68.4 g of cane sugar (mol.wt. 342) in a litre of water at are the same temperature. The lowering of vapour pressure in the first solution is [CPMT 2001]

Options:

A) Same as that of 2nd solution

B) Nearly one-fifth of the 2nd solution

C) Double that of 2nd solution

D) Nearly five times that of 2nd solution

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

We know that in the first solution number of the moles of urea =Mass of uream.wt. of urea×1V

=1260×11=0.2 and In second solution the number of moles of cane sugar =Mass of cane sugarm.wt. of cane sugar

=68.4342×11=0.2 .
