Tge vapour pressure of methyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol at 25°c are 90 and 40 mm of Hg respectively. If 12 g of CH3OH and 48 g of C2H5OH are mixed, calculte tge vapour pressure exerted by each component, the total vapour pressure of mixture and the composition of mixture.

Question

Arun · Answer

Hello Student, Please find the answer to your question Ptotal = pA + pB Molecular weight of CH3OH = 12 + 3 + 16 + 1 = 32 Molecular weight of C­2H5OH = 24 + 5 + 16 + 1 = 46 According to Raoult’s law Ptotal = p1 + p2 Where Ptotal = Total vapour pressure of the solution P1 = Partial vapour pressure of one component P2 = Partial vapour pressure of other componenet Again, p1 = Vapour pressure (po1) * mole fraction Similarly, p2 = Vapour pressure (po2) * mole fraction Mole fraction of CH3OH = 40/32 /40/32+60/46 = 0.49 Mole fraction of ethanol = 60/46 /60/46+40/32 = 0.51 NOTE THIS STEP : Thus now let us first calculate the partial vapour pressures, i.e., p1 and p2 of the two component. Partial vapour pressure of CH3OH(p1) = 44.5 * 0.51 = 22.69 mm ∴ Total vapour pressure of the solution = 43.48 + 22.69 mm = 66.17 mm Mole fraction of CH3OH in vapour = 43.48/66.17 = 0.65 Thanks and regards
