1. The partial molar volumes of acetone and chloroform in a mixture in which the mole fraction of CHCl3
is 0.4693 are 74.166cm3mol-1 and 80.236cm3mol-1, respectively. What is the volumes of the solution of
mass 1.00kg?

2. at 20oC, the density of a 20 per cent by mass ethanol/water solution isa 968.7 kgm-3. Given the
partial molar volume of ethanol in the solution is 52.2 cm3mol-1, calculate the partial molar volume of
the water.

3. at 310 K, the partial vapour pressures of a substance B dissolved in a liquid A are as follows.

xB 0.010 0.015 0.020

pb/kPa82.00 122.0 166.1

Show the solution obeys Henrys Law in this range of mole fractions, amd calculate Henrys law constant
at 310 K.

4. the vapour pressure of benzene if 53.3 kPa at 60.6OC, but it fell to 51.5 kPa when 19.0 g of involatile
organic compound was dissolved into 500 g of benzene.

5. The addition of 100g of a compound to 750 g of CCl4 lowered the freezing point of the solvent by
10.5 K. Calculate the molar mass of the compound.
