The vapour pressure of an aqueous solution of glucose is 750 mm Hg at 373 K . Calculate molality and mole fraction of solute.
At 373K V.P of water is 750 mm Hg
We know that, (P0-P) / P0 = w x M / m x W
molality = (P0-P) / P0 X 1000/M
= (760-750) / 760 X 1000/18
= 0.73 m
Mole fraction = (P0-P) / P0 = 10/760 = 0.0131
