Question

8.992 g of a non-volatile solute is dissolved in 240.0 g of water.
The solute does not react with water nor dissociate in solution.
Assume that the resulting solution displays ideal Raoult's law behaviour.
At 30°C the vapour pressure of the solution is 31.540 torr.
The vapour pressure of pure water at 30°C is 31.824 torr.
Calculate the molar mass of the solute (g/mol).
Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 1/99 Previous Tries
