What is the vapor pressure of a solution containing a solid solute and a liquid solvent?

  • A
    It is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.
  • B
    It is inversely proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.
  • C
    It is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solute.
  • D
    It is inversely proportional to the mole fraction of the solute.

At a certain temperature,$5 \ g$ of a non-electrolyte solute is dissolved in $100 \ g$ of water. The vapour pressure of the resulting solution is $2985 \ N/m^2$,and the vapour pressure of pure water is $3000 \ N/m^2$. Calculate the molar mass of the solute.

$6 \ g$ of a non-volatile solute $(x)$ is dissolved in $100 \ g$ of water. The relative lowering of vapour pressure of the resultant solution is $0.006$. What is the molar mass (in $g \ mol^{-1}$) of $x$?

What is the relation between the vapour pressure of the solution,the vapour pressure of the pure solvent,and its mole fraction in the solution?

The vapour pressure of a solvent decreases by $10 \ mm$ of $Hg$ when a non-volatile solute is added to the solvent. The mole fraction of the solute in the solution is $0.2$. What should be the mole fraction of the solvent if the decrease in the vapour pressure is to be $20 \ mm$ of $Hg$?
