A solution containing 30 g of non-volatile solute exactly in 90 g of water has a vapour pressure of 2.8 kPa at 298 K. Further, 18 g of water is then added to the solution and the new vapour pressure becomes 2.9 kPa at 298 K. Calculate:
- molar mass of the solute.
- vapour pressure of water at 298 K.
For the reaction :
\[\ce{2NO_{(g)} ⇌ N2_{(g)} + O2_{(g)}}\];
ΔH = -heat
Kc = 2.5 × 102 at 298K
What will happen to the concentration of N2 if :
(1) Temperature is decreased to 273 K.
(2) The pressure is reduced
