Explanation / Answer
1. Dissolve 69.0 g NaNO2 in 1.00 x 102 mL H2O.
(a) If the temperature of the solution is 100°C, what is the vapor pressure above the solution? The density of H2O at 100°C is 0.9591 g/mL.
Solution :- to calculate the vapor pressure above the solution we need to calculate the ole fraction of the solvent
Because the formula to calculate the vapor pressure is as follows
Vapor pressure of solution = mole ffraction of solvent * vapor pressure of the pure solvent.
So lets first calculate the moles of the NaNO2 and moles of water
Moles = mass / molar mass
Moles of NaNO2 = 69.0 g / 68.9953 g per mol = 1.00 mol NaNO2
Moles of water = 95.91 g / 18.0148 g per mol =5.32 mol H2O
NaNO2 is the ionic salt so it gives 2 ions so total moles of ions = 1.00 * 2 = 2.00
Now lets calculate the mole fraction of water
Mole fraction of water = moles of water / (moles of water + moles of ions)
Mole fraction of water = 5.32 mol / (5.32 mol + 2.00mol)
= 0.727
Now lets use this mole fraction of water to calculate the vapor pressure
Vapor pressure of pure water at 100 C = 760 mmHg
So, vapor pressure of the solution = 0.727 * 760 mmHg
= 553 mmHg
(b) Calculate the change in the boiling point of the solution, and calculate the boiling point of the aqueous solution.
Solution :- We already calculated the moles of the NaNO2 that is 1.00 and total moles of ions = 2.00
So lets calculate the molality of the solution
Molality = moles / kg solvent
Molality total ion = 2.00 mol / 0.100 kg (100 ml water = 100 g = 0.100 kg)
= 20.0 m
Now lets calculate the change in the boiling point of the solution
Formula
Tb = Kb* m
Where Tb = change in boiling point , Kb=0.512 oC/m is the molal boiling point constant , m = molality
Lets put the values in the formula.
Tb = 0.512 oC per m * 20.0
Tb = 10.24 oC
So the change in the boiling point = 10.24 oC
Now lets calculate the boiling point of the solution
Boiling point of solution = Boiling point of pure solvent + Tb
= 100 oC + 10.24 oC
=110.24 oC
(c) Calculate the freezing point of the solution. The density of H2O at 0°C is 0.9998 g/mL.
Solution :-
Moles of total ions = 2.00
Mass of water = 99.98 g since density is 0.9998 g/ml
Molality of total ion = 2.00 mol / 0.09998 kg = 20.0 m
Formula to calculate the freezing point change is as follows
Tf = Kf* m
Where Tf = change in freezing point , Kf=1.86oC/m is the molal freezing point constant , m = molality
Lets calculate the change in freezing point
Tf = Kf* m
Tf = 1.86 C/m * 20.0 m
Tf = 37.2 oC
So change in the freezing point = 37.2 oC
Now lets calculate the freezing point of the solution
Freezing point of solution = freezing point of pure solvent - Tf
= 0.00 oC - 37.2 oC (0.00 oC is the freezing point of pure water)
= -37.2 oC
(d) Which change is greater, the boiling point elevation or the freezing point depression?
Solution :- Looking at the values of the Tb and Tf we can conclude that the change in the freezing point is greater.
(e) Estimate the osmotic pressure at 25 °C for the solution. Assume that dissolved sodium nitrite does not affect the volume of the solution.
Solution
Formula to calculate the osmotic pressure is as follows
= MRT
Where = osmotic pressure , R= 0.08206 L atm per K mol , T= Kelvin temperature (25+273 = 298 K)
M= molarity
Lets put the values in the formual
= 20.0 M * 0.08206 L atm per K mol * 298 K
= 489 atm
