Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 70GQ

Cigars 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.)

  • Two samples of sodium chloride solutions are brought to a boil on a stove. One of the solutions boils at 100.10C and the other at 100.15C. a Which of the solutions is more concentrated? b Which of the solutions would have a lower freezing point? c If you split the solution that boils at 100.1C into two portions, how would the boiling points of the samples compare? Which of the following statements do you agree with regarding the determination of your answer for part c? I. The question cannot be answered with certainty without knowing the volumes of each portion. II. Making the necessary assumption that the two samples have equal volumes, I was able to correctly answer the question. III. The volumes that the sample was split into are irrelevant when determining the correct answer.
    A solution contains 3.75 g of a nonvolatile pure hydrocarbon in 95 g acetone. The boiling points of pure acetone and the solution are 55.95C and 56.50C, respectively. The molal boiling-point constant of acetone is 1.71 C kg/mol. What is the molar mass of the hydrocarbon?
    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?
