Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of A is 80 mmHg and that of B is 40 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure when both are present?
A.
40 mmHg
B.
80 mmHg
C.
120 mmHg
D.
100 mmHg
Solution
The total vapor pressure is the sum of the partial pressures: P_total = P_A + P_B = 80 mmHg + 40 mmHg = 120 mmHg.
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of A is 80 mmHg and that of B is 40 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure of the solution if the mole fraction of A is 0.75?
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 150 mmHg and pure B is 50 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure when the mole fraction of A is 0.4?
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 80 mmHg and that of pure B is 40 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure when the mole fraction of A is 0.6?
A.
64 mmHg
B.
72 mmHg
C.
80 mmHg
D.
88 mmHg
Solution
Using Raoult's Law, the total vapor pressure = (0.6 * 80 mmHg) + (0.4 * 40 mmHg) = 48 mmHg + 16 mmHg = 64 mmHg.
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 80 mmHg and pure B is 40 mmHg, what is the total vapor pressure when the mole fraction of A is 0.5?
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 80 mmHg and that of pure B is 40 mmHg, what is the vapor pressure of the solution if the mole fraction of A is 0.6?
A.
64 mmHg
B.
72 mmHg
C.
80 mmHg
D.
56 mmHg
Solution
Using Raoult's Law, the vapor pressure of the solution = (0.6 * 80 mmHg) + (0.4 * 40 mmHg) = 64 mmHg.
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 80 mmHg and pure B is 40 mmHg, what is the vapor pressure of the solution if the mole fraction of A is 0.6?
A.
64 mmHg
B.
72 mmHg
C.
80 mmHg
D.
56 mmHg
Solution
Using Raoult's Law, the vapor pressure of the solution = (0.6 * 80 mmHg) + (0.4 * 40 mmHg) = 64 mmHg.
Q. In a binary solution of A and B, if the vapor pressure of pure A is 80 mmHg and pure B is 40 mmHg, what is the vapor pressure of component A if the mole fraction of A is 0.6?
A.
48 mmHg
B.
64 mmHg
C.
80 mmHg
D.
32 mmHg
Solution
Using Raoult's Law, the vapor pressure of A in the solution is 0.6 * 80 mmHg = 48 mmHg.
Q. In a closed system at equilibrium, if the pressure is increased, what will happen to the equilibrium position if there are more moles of gas on the reactant side?
A.
Shift to the right
B.
Shift to the left
C.
No change
D.
Increase in temperature
Solution
Increasing the pressure will shift the equilibrium to the side with fewer moles of gas, which in this case is the right side.
Q. In a reaction A → B, if the rate of formation of B is 0.1 mol/L·s, what is the rate of disappearance of A?
A.
0.1 mol/L·s
B.
0.05 mol/L·s
C.
0.2 mol/L·s
D.
0.1 L/mol·s
Solution
For the reaction A → B, the rate of disappearance of A is equal to the rate of formation of B, hence it is 0.1 mol/L·s. However, if stoichiometry is considered as 1:1, the rate of disappearance of A is also 0.1 mol/L·s.
