1. One litre of water at NTP dissolves 0.08 g of nitrogen. Calculate the amount of [2]
nitrogen that can be dissolved in four litres of water at 273k and at a pressure of
1520 mm hg.
2. State Raoult’s law for a solution containing volatile components. What is the [2]
similarity between Raoult’s law and Henry’s law?
3. An aqueous solution containing 20% by weight of liquid ‘A’ (Mol. Wt. = 140) [2]
has vapour pressure of 160 mm at 570c. find the vapour pressure of pure A, if
that of water in 150 mm at this temperature.
4. A 4% solution w/W of sucrose (M = 342 g mol-1) in water has a freezing point [2]
of 271.5K. Calculate the freezing point of 5% glucose (M = 180 g mol-1) in
water. (Given: Freezing point of pure water = 273.15K)
