JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2020 - 9th January Evening Slot - No. 9)

A cylinder containing an ideal gas (0.1 mol of 1.0 dm3) is in thermal equilibrium with a large volume of 0.5 molal aqueous solution of ethylene glycol at its freezing point. If the stoppers S1 and S2 (as shown in the figure) are suddenly withdrawn, the volume of the gas in litres after equilibrium is achieved will be____.

(Given, Kf (water) = 2.0 K kg mol–1,
R = 0.08 dm3 atm K–1 mol–1)

JEE Main 2020 (Online) 9th January Evening Slot Chemistry - Solutions Question 103 English
Answer
2.17TO2.23

Explanation

For aqueous solution

$$\Delta $$Tf = Kf.m = 2 × 0.5

$$ \therefore $$ Temperature of solution = –1°C = 272 K

$$ \therefore $$ Final volume of ideal gas = $${{nRT} \over P}$$

= $${{0.1 \times 0.08 \times 272} \over 1}$$

= 2.18 L
