Sample Question:

5) A solution contains 3.95 g of carbon disulfide (CS 2) and 2.43 g of acetone


(CH3COCH3). At 35 C the vapor pressures of pure carbon disulfide and pure
acetone are 515 torr and 332 torr, respectively. Assuming ideal behavior,
calculate the vapor pressures of each component and the total vapor pressure
above the solution. The experimentally measured total vapor pressure of the
solution at 35 °C is 645 torr. Is the solution ideal? If not, what can you say
about the relative strength of carbon disulfide–acetone interactions compared
to the acetone–acetone and carbon disulfide–carbon disulfide interactions?

2) The solution of benzene (C6H6) and toluene (C7H8) is 25.0% benzene by
mass. At 25 °C the vapor pressures of pure benzene and pure toluene are 94.2
torr and 28.4 torr, respectively. Assuming ideal behavior, calculate the
following:

 The vapor pressure of each of the solution components in the mixture.


 The total pressure above the solution.
 The composition of the vapor in mass percent.

Why is the composition of the vapor different from the composition of the
solution?
