The vapour pressure of acetone at `20^(@)C` is 185 torr. When 1.2 g of a non-volatile substance was dissolved in 100 g of acetone at `20^(@)C`, its vapour pressure was 183 torr. The molar mass of the substance is :A. 128B. 488C. 32D. 64

Answer» Correct Answer - d
`(P_(A)^(@)P_(S))/P_(S)=(W_(B)xxW_(A))/(W_(A)xxM_(B))`
`((185-183))/((183))=((1.2 g)xx(58 g mol^(-1)))/((100g)xxM_(B))`
`M_(B)=((1.2g)xx(58g mol^(-1))xx(183))/(2xx(100g))=63.68g mol^(-1)`
=64 g `mol^(-1)`
