Q 26Case study (4 Marks)4 Marks
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
At the freezing point of a solvent, the solid and the liquid are in equilibrium. Therefore, a solution will freeze when its vapour pressure becomes equal to the vapour pressure of the pure solid solvent. It has been observed that when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent, the freezing point of the solution is always lower than that of the pure solvent. Depression in freezing point can be given as, $\Delta\text{T}_\text{f}=\text{K}_\text{f}\text{m}$ Where, $K_f =$ Molal freezing point depression constant or we can write, $\Delta\text{T}_\text{f}=\frac{\text{K}_\text{f}\times\text{W}_\text{B}\times1000}{\text{W}_A\times\text{M}_\text{B}}$

Q 27Case study (4 Marks)4 Marks
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
According to Raoult's law, the partial pressure of two components of the solution maybe given as:
$\text{P}_\text{A}=\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PA }}\text{x}_\text{A}$ and $\text{P}_\text{B}=\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PB }}\text{x}_\text{B}$
For an ideal solution (obeys Raoult's law always)
$\Delta\text{H}_\text{mix}=0,\Delta\text{mix}=0$
All solutions do not obey Raoults law over entire range of concentration. These are known as non-ideal solutions.

Positive deviation $\Rightarrow\text{P}_\text{A}>\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PA }}\text{x}_\text{A}$ and $\text{P}_\text{B}>\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PB }}\text{x}_\text{B}$
Negative deviation $\text{P}_\text{A}<\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PA }}\text{x}_\text{A}$ and $\text{P}_\text{B}\stackrel{{0}}{\hbox{PB }}\text{x}_\text{B}$

Q 28Case study (4 Marks)4 Marks
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
The solubility of gases increases with increase of pressure. William Henry made a systematic investigation of the solubility of a gas in a liquid. According to Henry's law "the mass of a gas dissolved per unit volume of the solvent at constant temperature is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the solution". Dalton during the same period also concluded independently that the solubility of a gas in a ti quid solution depends upon the partial pressure of the gas. If we use the mole fraction of gas in the solution as a measure of its solubility, then Henry's law can be modified as "the partial pressure of the gas in the vapour phase is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the gas in the solution"
The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer:

Q 29Case study (4 Marks)4 Marks
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
If some solute is added to a solvent, the boiling point of solution increases. This is known as elevation in baiting point.
$\Delta\text{T}_\text{b}=\text{K}_\text{b}\text{m}$ where, $K_b =$ Molal elevation constant,
$\Delta\text{T}_\text{b}\propto\text{m}$
Hence, it is a colligative property,

where, $M =$ Molar mass of solvent,
$\Delta\text{vap}$ $H = $Enthalpy of vaporisation,
Molar mass can also be calculated using elevation in boiling point.
