Multiple Choice Questions

Question 1: Which of the following has been arranged in order of decreasing freezing point?
(a) 0.04 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \) > 0.140 M sucrose > 0.075 M \( \ce{CuSO4} \) > 0.05 M \( \ce{KNO3} \)
(b) 0.075 M \( \ce{CuSO4} \) > 0.140 M sucrose > 0.04 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \) > 0.05 M \( \ce{KNO3} \)
(c) 0.05 M \( \ce{KNO3} \) > 0.04 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \) > 0.140 M sucrose > 0.075 M \( \ce{CuSO4} \)
(d) 0.075 M \( \ce{CuSO4} \) > 0.05 M \( \ce{KNO3} \) > 0.140 M sucrose > 0.04 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 0.05 M \( \ce{KNO3} \) > 0.04 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \) > 0.140 M sucrose > 0.075 M \( \ce{CuSO4} \)

Explanation:
1. The greater the total particle concentration (i x M), the lower the freezing point.
2. i x M: \( \ce{KNO3} \) = 2(0.05) = 0.10; \( \ce{BaCl2} \) = 3(0.04) = 0.12; sucrose = 0.140; \( \ce{CuSO4} \) = 2(0.075) = 0.15.
3. Decreasing freezing point means increasing particle concentration: KNO3 > BaCl2 > sucrose > CuSO4.

Teacher's Note:
1. Compare i x concentration for each solute.

Question 2: The van't Hoff factor for \( \ce{BaCl2} \) at 0.01 M concentration is 1.98. The percentage dissociation of \( \ce{BaCl2} \) at this concentration is:
(a) 49
(b) 69
(c) 89
(d) 98
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) 49

Explanation:
1. \( \ce{BaCl2 -> Ba^{2+} + 2Cl-} \) gives \( i=1+2\alpha \).
2. \( 1.98=1+2\alpha \), so \( \alpha=0.49 \), that is 49%.

Teacher's Note:
1. Each formula unit gives 3 ions, so i = 1 + 2 alpha.

Question 3: 6.8 g of \( \ce{H2O2} \) is dissolved in 224 mL of solution. This solution will be labelled as:
(a) 0.224 V
(b) 20 V
(c) 5 V
(d) 10 V
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 10 V

Explanation:
1. Moles of \( \ce{H2O2} \) = \( \frac{6.8}{34}=0.2 \); molarity = \( \frac{0.2}{0.224}=0.893 \) M.
2. Volume strength = 11.2 x molarity = \( 11.2\times0.893=10 \), so the label is 10 V.

Teacher's Note:
1. Volume strength is the litres of O2 at STP given by 1 litre of solution.

Question 4: Two solutions \( S_1 \) (0.1 M NaCl) and \( S_2 \) (0.05 M \( \ce{BaCl2} \)) are separated by a semipermeable membrane in a U-tube. Which of the following statements is correct? (Assume complete dissociation of both electrolytes.)
(a) \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) are isotonic
(b) \( S_1 \) is hypertonic while \( S_2 \) is hypotonic
(c) \( S_1 \) is hypotonic while \( S_2 \) is hypertonic
(d) All of the above
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( S_1 \) is hypertonic while \( S_2 \) is hypotonic

Explanation:
1. Osmotically active concentration of \( S_1 \): \( 2\times0.1=0.20 \) M.
2. For \( S_2 \): \( 3\times0.05=0.15 \) M.
3. \( S_1 \) has the higher osmotic pressure, so it is hypertonic and \( S_2 \) is hypotonic.

Teacher's Note:
1. Hypertonic means higher effective concentration.

Question 5: The vapour pressure of \( \ce{CCl4} \) at 25 \(^\circ\)C is 143 mm Hg. 0.5 g of a non-volatile solute (molar mass 65) is dissolved in 100 mL of \( \ce{CCl4} \) (density 1.58 g per cm\(^3\)). The vapour pressure of the solution is:
(a) 94.39 mm
(b) 141.93 mm
(c) 199.34 mm
(d) 143.99 mm
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) 141.93 mm

Explanation:
1. Moles of solute = \( \frac{0.5}{65}=0.00769 \); mass of \( \ce{CCl4} \) = 158 g, moles = \( \frac{158}{154}=1.026 \).
2. \( x_{solute}=\frac{0.00769}{1.0337}=0.00744 \).
3. \( P=143(1-0.00744)=141.93 \) mm.

Teacher's Note:
1. Raoult's law: P = P0 x (mole fraction of solvent).

Question 6: Which solution will have the highest boiling point?
(a) 1% glucose in water
(b) 1% sucrose in water
(c) 1% \( \ce{CaCl2} \) in water
(d) 1% NaCl in water
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 1% NaCl in water

Explanation:
1. For equal mass percent, the number of particles per 100 g is (1/M) x i.
2. Glucose: 1/180 = 0.0056; sucrose: 1/342 = 0.0029; NaCl: 2/58.5 = 0.0342; \( \ce{CaCl2} \): 3/111 = 0.0270.
3. NaCl gives the most particles, hence the highest boiling point.

Teacher's Note:
1. Small molar mass and large i give more particles.

Question 7: At 40 \(^\circ\)C the total vapour pressure (in torr) of methyl alcohol (A) and ethyl alcohol (B) is represented by \( P=120X_A+138 \), where \( X_A \) is the mole fraction of methyl alcohol. The values of \( \lim_{X_A\to0}\frac{P_B}{X_B} \) and \( \lim_{X_B\to0}\frac{P_A}{X_A} \) (partial pressures) are:
(a) 138, 258
(b) 258, 138
(c) 120, 138
(d) 138, 125
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) 138, 258

Explanation:
1. For an ideal mixture, \( P=P_B^0+(P_A^0-P_B^0)X_A \). Comparing, \( P_B^0=138 \) and \( P_A^0-P_B^0=120 \), so \( P_A^0=258 \).
2. As \( X_A\to0 \), \( P_B/X_B\to P_B^0=138 \); as \( X_B\to0 \), \( P_A/X_A\to P_A^0=258 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Raoult's law gives P/X = P0 for the nearly pure component.

Question 8: When 20 g of naphthoic acid (\( \ce{C11H8O2} \)) is dissolved in 50 g of benzene (\( K_f=1.72 \) K kg per mol), a freezing point depression of 2 K is observed. The van't Hoff factor (i) is:
(a) 1.0
(b) 2.0
(c) 0.5
(d) 3.0
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 0.5

Explanation:
1. Molar mass = 172 g per mol, so moles = \( \frac{20}{172}=0.1163 \) and molality = \( \frac{0.1163}{0.05}=2.326 \).
2. Expected \( \Delta T_f=1.72\times2.326=4.0 \) K.
3. \( i=\frac{2}{4}=0.5 \) (association into dimers).

Teacher's Note:
1. i less than 1 indicates association.

Question 9: Two substances A and B have \( P_A^0:P_B^0=1:2 \) and their mole fractions in solution are in the ratio 1 : 2. The mole fraction of A in the vapour is:
(a) 0.33
(b) 0.25
(c) 0.2
(d) 0.52
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 0.2

Explanation:
1. \( x_A=\frac13 \), \( x_B=\frac23 \); take \( P_A^0=1 \), \( P_B^0=2 \).
2. \( p_A=\frac13 \), \( p_B=\frac43 \); total = \( \frac53 \).
3. \( y_A=\frac{1/3}{5/3}=0.2 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Vapour composition = partial pressure / total pressure.

Question 10: 150 mL of \( \ce{C2H5OH} \) (density 0.78 g per mL) is diluted to one litre by adding water (assume volumes are additive and the density of water is 1 g per mL). The molality of the solution is:
(a) 2.99
(b) 2.54
(c) 11.7
(d) 29.9
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) 2.99

Explanation:
1. Mass of ethanol = \( 150\times0.78=117 \) g; moles = \( \frac{117}{46}=2.543 \).
2. Water added = 850 mL = 850 g = 0.85 kg.
3. Molality = \( \frac{2.543}{0.85}=2.99 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Molality uses the mass of the solvent in kg.

Question 11: The pH of a 0.1 M monobasic acid is measured to be 2. Its osmotic pressure at a given temperature T K is:
(a) 0.1 RT
(b) 1.1 RT
(c) 0.01 RT
(d) 0.11 RT
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 0.11 RT

Explanation:
1. \( [H^+]=0.01 \) M, so \( \alpha=0.1 \) and \( i=1+\alpha=1.1 \).
2. \( \pi=iCRT=1.1\times0.1\,RT=0.11\,RT \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Include the van't Hoff factor for a weak electrolyte.

Question 12: What is the osmotic pressure of the solution obtained by mixing 300 cm\(^3\) of 0.6% (mass/volume) solution of urea with 300 cm\(^3\) of 3.42% solution of sucrose at 20 \(^\circ\)C?
(a) 5 atm
(b) 2.4 atm
(c) 5.2 atm
(d) 4.5 atm
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) 2.4 atm

Explanation:
1. Urea: \( \frac{1.8}{60}=0.03 \) mol; sucrose: \( \frac{10.26}{342}=0.03 \) mol in the 600 cm\(^3\) mixture.
2. Total concentration = \( \frac{0.06}{0.6}=0.1 \) M.
3. \( \pi=CRT=0.1\times0.0821\times293=2.4 \) atm.

Teacher's Note:
1. Add the moles of non-electrolytes and divide by the final volume.

Question 13: A solution of HCl contains 0.03659 g per mL and another solution of acetic acid contains 0.04509 g per mL. Which will have the highest normality (N)?
(a) \( N_{CH_3COOH} \)
(b) \( N_{HCl} \)
(c) Both have the same N
(d) None of these
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( N_{HCl} \)

Explanation:
1. HCl: 36.59 g per L divided by 36.5 g per equivalent is 1.0 N.
2. Acetic acid: 45.09 g per L divided by 60 g per equivalent is 0.75 N.
3. HCl has the higher normality.

Teacher's Note:
1. Normality = (g per L) / equivalent mass.

Question 14: Two solutions of a non-electrolyte are mixed: 480 mL of 1.5 M of the first solution with 520 mL of 1.2 M of the second solution. The molarity of the final solution is:
(a) 1.20 M
(b) 1.50 M
(c) 2.70 M
(d) 1.344 M
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 1.344 M

Explanation:
1. Moles = \( 0.48\times1.5+0.52\times1.2=0.72+0.624=1.344 \).
2. Total volume = 1.0 L, so molarity = 1.344 M.

Teacher's Note:
1. Add moles, then divide by the total volume.

Question 15: Equal masses of a solute are dissolved in equal masses of the solvents A and B. The relative lowering of vapour pressure for solution A is twice that for solution B. If \( M_A \) and \( M_B \) are the molar masses of the solvents A and B, then for dilute solutions of A and B:
(a) \( M_A=2M_B \)
(b) \( M_A=M_B \)
(c) \( M_A=\frac{M_B}{2} \)
(d) \( M_A=4M_B \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( M_A=2M_B \)

Explanation:
1. For a dilute solution, relative lowering = \( \frac{n_{solute}}{n_{solvent}}=\frac{w/m}{W/M} \).
2. With the same w, m and W, it is proportional to the solvent molar mass M.
3. So \( \frac{M_A}{M_B}=2 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Relative lowering is proportional to the solvent's molar mass.

Question 16: Two volatile liquids A and B form an ideal solution with \( P_A^0(a) (1) only
(b) (2) only
(c) Both (1) and (3)
(d) (1), (2) and (3)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) Both (1) and (3)

Explanation:
1. At \( X_A=1 \) the liquid is pure A, so \( P=P_A^0 \) (statement 1 is true), and since \( P_A^02. At \( X_B=1 \), \( P=P_B^0>P_A^0 \), so statement 2 is false.

Teacher's Note:
1. Read the end points of the line as the pure-component vapour pressures.

Question 17: The plot of \( \log\pi \) (atm) against \( \log C \) (C = concentration of solute in g per L) is a straight line of unit slope. At 300 K, for a solute of molar mass 300 g per mol, the intercept on the \( \log\pi \) axis (OA) equals \( \log(x\times10^{-2}) \). The value of x is:
(a) 0.0821
(b) 82.1
(c) 8.21
(d) 0.821
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 8.21

Explanation:
1. \( \pi=\frac{C}{M}RT \), so \( \log\pi=\log C+\log\frac{RT}{M} \).
2. Intercept = \( \log\frac{0.0821\times300}{300}=\log0.0821=\log(8.21\times10^{-2}) \), so x = 8.21.

Teacher's Note:
1. Intercept occurs where log C = 0.

Question 18: The degree of dissociation of \( \ce{Ca(NO3)2} \) in a dilute aqueous solution containing 7 g of the salt per 100 g of water at 100 \(^\circ\)C is 70%. The vapour pressure of the solution is:
(a) 746.27 mm Hg
(b) 550.21 mm Hg
(c) 446.27 mm Hg
(d) 243.13 mm Hg
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) 746.27 mm Hg

Explanation:
1. Moles of salt = \( \frac{7}{164}=0.0427 \); \( i=1+2(0.7)=2.4 \), so effective moles = 0.1024.
2. Moles of water = \( \frac{100}{18}=5.556 \); \( x_{solute}=\frac{0.1024}{5.658}=0.0181 \).
3. At 100 \(^\circ\)C, \( P^0=760 \) mm, so \( P=760(1-0.0181)=746.3 \) mm Hg.

Teacher's Note:
1. Pure water boils at 100 C, so its vapour pressure is 760 mm Hg.

Question 19: A 0.025 M solution of a monobasic acid had a freezing point of -0.06 \(^\circ\)C. Calculate \( K_a \) for the acid. (\( K_f \) for water = 1.86 K kg per mol; assume molality equal to molarity.)
(a) \( 1.96\times10^{-3} \)
(b) \( 3.96\times10^{-3} \)
(c) \( 5.8\times10^{-3} \)
(d) \( 2.96\times10^{-3} \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) \( 2.96\times10^{-3} \)

Explanation:
1. \( i=\frac{0.06}{1.86\times0.025}=1.29 \), so \( \alpha=0.29 \).
2. \( K_a=\frac{C\alpha^2}{1-\alpha}=\frac{0.025\times0.0841}{0.71}\approx2.96\times10^{-3} \).

Teacher's Note:
1. For a monobasic acid, i = 1 + alpha.
