What are minimum boiling and maximum boiling azeotropes? |
Answer» Minimum boiling azeotropes are the non-ideal solutions showing positive deviation while maximum boiling azeotropes are those which show negative deviation. Because of positive deviation their vapour pressures are comparatively higher and so they boil at lower temperatures while in case of negative deviation, the vapour pressures are lesser and so higher temperature are required for boiling them. |

Define Azeotropes? What are maximum and minimum boiling azeotropes ? Explain with example. |
Answer» Azeotropes are constant boiling mixture which has same composition in liquid phase as well as in vapour phase. The non ideal solutions which exhibit negative deviation from ideal solution at a particular composition are called as maximum boiling azeotropes. e.g 68% aqueous solution of HNO3 or any other suitable example. The non ideal solutions which exhibit positive deviation from ideal solution at a particular composition are called as minimum boiling azeotropes. e.g 95% aqueous ethanol by volume or any other suitable example. |

Calcualate the amount of `NaCl` which must be added to `100 g` water so that the freezing point, depressed by `2 K`. For water `K_(f)` =`1.86 K kg mol^(-1)`. |
Answer» `NaCl` is a strong electrolyte. It is completely dissociated in solution. Degree of dissociation, `alpha=1` `NaClhArrunderset((n=2))(Na^o++Cl^(ө))` Number of particles after dissociation =`1+(n-1)alpha` `=1+(2-1)xx1` `=2` `DetlaT_(obs)/DetlaT_(theo)="Number of particles after dissociation"/"Number of particles when there is no dissociation"` `2/DetlaT_(theo)=2` ot `DetlaT_(theo)=1` Let W g of NaCl be dissolved in `100 g` of water. So `DetlaT_(theo)=(1000xxK_(f)xxW_(2))/(W_(1)xxMw_(1))` or`W_(2)=(DetlaT_(theo)xxW_(1)xxMw_(1))/(1000xxK_(f))` `(1xx100xx58.5)/(1000xx1.86) = 3.145 g` |
