Solution of NCERT In Text Question-2.5

Question - 2.5 - Calculate

(a) molality

(b) molarity and

(c) mole fraction of KI if the density of 20% (mass/mass) aqueous KI is 1.202 g mL –1.

Solution:

Given, 20% (mass/mass) aqueous solution of KI.

This means 20 gm of KI is dissolved in 80 gm of water.

Molar mass of KI = 39 + 127 = 166 g mol – 1

Mass of solute (W B) = 20 gm

Mass of solvent (WA ) = 80 gm

Molar mass of solute (M B)= 166 g mol – 1

Density of the aqueous KI = 1.202 g mL – 1
