Question

Evaluate the following statements for their correctness.

A. The elevation in boiling point temperature of water will be same for 0.1 M NaCl and 0.1 M urea.
B. Azeotropic mixture boil without change in their composition.
C. Osmosis always takes place from hypertonic to hypotonic solution.
D. The density of 32% H2SO4 solution having molarity 4.09 M is approximately 1.26 g mL1.
E. A negatively charged sol is obtained when KI solution is added to silver nitrate solution.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Correct answer
AB and D only

Step-by-step explanation

(A) Elevation in boiling point (Tb) temperature of the water is not same, as ‘i’ value is different for two solutions.
(B) Azeotropic mixture: Liquid mixtures that distill over without changes in composition are called constant boiling mixtures or Azeotropes or Azeotropic mixtures.
(C) Osmosis always takes place from hypotonic (low concentration of solute) solution to hypertonic (high concentration of solute) solution.
(D) Let the mass of H2SO4 (32%) is 100.

 Weight of H2SO4 = 32

Moles of H2SO4 = 3298

Now, 4.09 = 3298 × V

 V = 79 mL

Density = 10079 = 1.265
(E) A negative charged sol is obtained when KI solution is added to silver nitrate solution whereas positive charged sol is obtained when AgNO3 solution is added to KI solution.

So, the correct answer is B and D only.
