20.0 moles, 1840 g, of a nonvolatile solute, C 3H 8O 3 is added to a flask with an unknown amount of water and stirred. The solution is allowed to reach 90.0°C . The vapor pressure of pure water at this temperature is 528.8 mm Hg. The vapor pressure of the solution is 423.0 mm Hg. How many kg of water was present?

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg
