Interpretation: Among the given set of solutions, the one with the same boiling point of Glucose, highest vapor pressure and largest freezing point depression has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Colligative properties of a substance include the depression in the freezing point, elevation of boiling-point and osmotic pressure. These are dependant only on the number present and not based on the solute particles present in an ideal solution.
The vapor pressure of solution can be calculated from Raoult’s law,
Where,
The freezing point depression can be calculated from the equation,

Answer
Explanation of Solution
To identify which solution has highest vapor pressure at
As the concentration of solute decreases, the vapor pressure of the solvent gets increases because the mole fraction gets increased.
Hence,

- Consider two hypothetical pure substances, AB(s) and XY(s). When equal molar amounts of these substances are placed in separate 500-mL samples of water, they undergo the following reactions: AB(s)A+(aq)+B(aq)XY(s)XY(aq) a Which solution would you expect to have the lower boiling point? Why? b Would you expect the vapor pressures of the two solutions to be equal? If not, which one would you expect to have the higher vapor pressure? c Describe a procedure that would make the two solutions have the same boiling point. d If you took 250 mL of the AB(aq) solution prepared above, would it have the same boiling point as the original solution? Be sure to explain your answer. e The container of XY(aq) is left out on the bench top for several days, which allows some of the water to evaporate from the solution. How would the melting point of this solution compare to the melting point of the original solution?arrow_forwardA 2.00-g sample of a large biomolecule was dissolved in 15.0 g carbon tetrachloride. The boiling point of this solution was determined to be 77 .85C. Calculate the molar mass of the biomolecule. For carbon tetrachloride, the boiling-point constant is 5.03C kg/mol, and the boiling point of pure carbon tetrachloride is 76.50C.arrow_forwardCarbon tetrachloride (CCl4) boils at 76.8C and has a density of 1.59 g/mL. (a) A solution prepared by dissolving 0.287 mol of a nonelectrolyte in 255 mL of CCl4 boils at 80.3C. What is the boiling point constant (kb) for CCl4? (b) Another solution is prepared by dissolving 37.1 g of an electrolyte (MM=167g/mol) in 244 mL of CCl4. The resulting solution boils at 85.2C. What is i for the electrolyte?arrow_forward
- The organic salt [(C4H9)4N][ClO4] consists of the ions (C4H9)4N+ and ClO4. The salt dissolves in chloroform. What mass (in grams) of the salt must have been dissolved if the boiling point of a solution of the salt in 25.0 g chloroform is 63.20 C? The normal boiling point of chloroform is 61.70 C and Kb = 3.63 C kg mol1. Assume that the salt dissociates completely into its ions in solution.arrow_forwardThe solubility of NaCl in water at 100 C is 39.1 g/100. g of water Calculate the boiling point of this solution. (Assume i = 1.85 for NaCl.)arrow_forwardCigars are best stored in a humidor at 18 C and 55% relative humidity. This means the pressure of water vapor should be 55% of the vapor pressure of pure water at the same temperature. The proper humidity can be maintained by placing a solution of glycerol [C3H5(OH)3] and water in the humidor. Calculate the percent by mass of glycerol that will lower the vapor pressure of water to the desired value. (The vapor pressure of glycerol is negligible.)arrow_forward
