    The mass of glucose that should be dissolved in \[50g\]of water in order to produce the same lowering of vapour pressure as is produced by dissolving \[1g\]of urea in the same quantity of water is:

    A)  \[1g\]             

    B)  \[3g\]

    C)  \[6g\]            

    D)  \[18g\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\frac{P-{{P}_{s}}}{P}=\frac{{{w}_{1}}{{M}_{2}}}{{{w}_{2}}{{M}_{1}}}\] To produce same lowering of vapour pressure, \[\frac{P-{{P}_{s}}}{P}\] will be same for both cases. So, \[\frac{{{W}_{(Glu\cos e)}}\times 18}{50\times 180}=\frac{{{W}_{(turea)}}\times 18}{50\times 60}\] \[{{W}_{(Glucose)}}\]=weight of glucose \[{{W}_{(Glucose)}}\] = weight of urea or \[\frac{{{W}_{(Glucose)}}\times 18}{50\times 180}=\frac{1\times 18}{50\times 60}\] \[{{W}_{(Glucose)}}=3\]
