    What will be the mole fraction of the solute when the vapour pressure of a dilute aqueous solution of glucose is 750 mm Hg at 373 K?

    A) \[\frac{1}{7.6}\]

    B) \[\frac{1}{76}\]

    C) \[\frac{1}{46}\]

    D) \[\frac{1}{38}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b]
    Vapour pressure \[(p_{A}^{o})\] of pure water at equilibrium
    \[={{p}_{atm}}\]
    \[=760\] mm Hg
    Vapour pressure of aq. Solution of glucose
    \[=750\] mm Hg
    Relative lowering of vapour pressure is
    \[\frac{p_{A}^{o}-p}{p_{A}^{o}}={{\chi }_{B}}\]
    where, \[{{\chi }_{B}}=\] mole fraction of glucose
    \[{{\chi }_{B}}=\frac{760-750}{760}=\frac{1}{76}\]
