NEET Chemistry Raoult's Law MCQ Question
Vapour pressure of benzene at 30°C is 121.8 mm. When 15 g of a non volatile solute is dissolved in 250 g of benzene, its vapour pressure decreased to 120.2 mm. The molecular weight of the solute (Mo. wt. of solvent = 78)
356.2
456.8
530.1
656.7
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using Raoult's law, the decrease in vapor pressure is used to calculate the molar mass of the solute. The calculation gives a molar mass of approximately 356.2 g/mol.
