(a)
Interpretation:
The value of vapor pressure at T = 185 °C should be determined by using two-point linear interpolation.
Concept introduction:
Linear interpolation equation,
If the two known values are (x1 , y1 ) and (x2 , y2 ), then the y value for some point x is,
(b)
Interpretation:
The vapor pressure at 148.2 °C and the percentage error considering given value should be determined along with the reason for expecting the error which is associated with part (a) to be significantly less than part (b).

- For a one-component system draw a schematic labelled phase diagram given that at low T and low p, only phase γ is present; at low T and high p, only phase β is present; at high T and low p, only phase α is present; at high T and high p, only phase δ is present; phases γ and δ are never in equilibrium.

KFeCl3 melts congruently at 399 °C and K2FeCl4 melts incongruently at 380 °C. Eutectics are formed with compositions x = 0.38 (melting point 351 °C) and x = 0.54 (melting point 393 °C), where x is the mole fraction of FeCl2. The KCl solubility curve intersects the A curve at x = 0.34. Sketch the phase diagram. State the phases that are in equilibrium when a mixture of composition x = 0.36 is cooled from 400 °C to 300 °C.arrow_forward
- 2-E, A liquid mixture of 30 mol benzene, 30 mol toluene, and 40 mol water initially at 70°C and 101.3 kPa total pressure is heated slowly at a constant pressure of 101.3 kPa to 90°C. The vapor generated stays in contact with the remaining liquid. Assuming equilibrium between phases at all times, estimate (a) the temperature at which vaporization begins, (b) the composition of the first vapor. (c) the temperature at which vaporization is complete, and (d) the composition of the last liquid. Note: Water is essentially totally immiscible with benzene and toluene. Each liquid phase contributes to the total vapor pressure. Over the temperature range involved, the vapor pressure of benzene is 2.60 times that of toluene, and the vapor pressure of water is 1.23 times that of toluene.

A A student determined the molar mass of an unknown non-dissociating liquid by the method described in this experiment. She found that the equilibrium temperature of a mixture of ice and pure water was indicated to be +0.4°C on her thermometer. When she added 9.9 g of her sample to the mixture, the temperature, after thorough stirring, fell to -3.7°C. She then poured off the solution through a screen into a beaker. The mass of the solution was 84.2 g. a. What was the freezing point depression? °C b. What was the molality of the unknown liquid? m c. What mass of unknown liquid was in the decanted solution? d.
