Colligative Properties of Solutions
« on: November 26, 2012, 09:16:38 AM »
I badly need help on answering these... Prof gave us some examples but nothing like these one's  :-\

Freezing Point Depression:
List the following aqueous solutions in order of decreasing freezing point: 0.075m Glucose; 0.085m LiBr; 0.030m Zn(NO3)2

Vapor Pressure Lowering:
1. The concentrations of two solutions are as follows: (1) 5.0g of ethylene glycol, C2H6O2, in 100g of H2O; (2) 8.0g of Glucose, C6H12O6, in 100g H2O. Which solution has the higher vapor pressure?

2. Calculate the vapor pressure at 30 degrees Celsius of a 3.0 molal solution of ethylene glycol assuming that the vapor pressure of a solution containing a non-volatile solute is proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.

Osmotic Pressure:

1. An aqueous solution of urea has a freezing of -0.52 degrees Celsius. Predict the osmotic pressure at 37 degrees Celsius. Assume that the molarity and molality are the same.

What formulae do you know?

What formulae do you know?

Freezing Point = ΔTF = m•KF / ΔTF = Freezing Point Solvent - Freezing Point Solution
Vapor Pressure = PA = XAPA°
Osmotic Pressure ~ πV = nRT / π = MRT

For ionic compounds the vant Hoff isotonic factor is extremely important
