Question

For a solution containing a non-volatile solute, the relative lowering of vapour pressure is 0.2. If the solution contains 5 moles in all, then the number of moles of solvent in the solution is:
  1. 4
  2. 3
  3. 5
  4. 2

A
2
B
4
C
5
D
3
Solution
Verified by Toppr

ΔPP0=Xsolute

Xsolute=02

nsolutentotal=02

nsolute=02×5 mol=1 mol

Then nsolvent=51=4 moles

Hence, the correct option is A
