[molar masses (g mol -1 ): Fe = , S = , O = , H = 1.008] (a) Molar mass of FeSO 4.7H 2 O = g/mol 1L of M solution requires x = g of ferrous sulfate Hence, 250 mL requires 5.560/4 = g Solutions Chapter 11 Worked Example 1
Chapter 11 Worked Example 2 A solution of hydrochloric acid in water is 38.00% HCl by mass. Its density is g/cm 3 at 20 o C. Compute its molarity, mole fraction, and molality at this temperature. Molar masses (g/mol): H = ; Cl = 35.45; O = Solution
At 27 o C, the vapor pressure of pure benzene is atm and the vapor pressure of pure n-hexane is atm. If equal amounts (equal number of moles) of benzene and n- hexane are mixed to form an ideal solution, calculate the mole fraction of benzene in the vapor at equilibrium with the solution. Show working. Explain which (benzene or n-hexane) Is the more volatile component. Firstly, X B = X H = 0.5 Hence from Raoult’s Law, P B = 0.5 x = atm P H = 0.5 x = atm and P TOTAL = atm For vapor, p’ B = X’ B x P TOTAL, or = X’ B x Hence, X’ B = Since the mole fraction of benzene is lower in the vapor, hexane must be the more volatile component.

A is B.pt. of pure water B is B.pt. of pure HCl…C is azeotropic mixture…… If solution of composition X is distilled HCl will distil first, until composition of liquid in flask reaches that of the azeotropic mixture. Then, the azeotrope distils until the flask is empty. Solution
Chapter 11 Worked Example 6 Henry’s Law constant for CO 2 dissolved in water is 1.65 x 10 3 Atm. If a carbonated drink is bottled under a CO 2 pressure of 5.0 atm: (a)Calculate the molar concentration of CO 2 in water under these conditions, using 1.00 g cm -3 as the density of the drink. (b) Explain what happens on a microscopic level when the bottle is opened. Solution
(b)In the closed bottle the CO 2 at 5.0 atm pressure in the small space above the liquid is in dynamic equilibrium with the dissolved CO 2. When the bottle is opened, the pressure becomes 1 atm, CO 2 escapes because the partial pressure of CO 2 in the atmosphere is far lower than 1 atm, thus equilibrium is eventually established with a much lower concentration of CO 2 in solution.
