Problem 50P

What is the molality of a solution consisting of 2.66 mL of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4; d = 1.59 g/mL) in 76.5 mL of methylene chloride (CH2Cl2; d = 1.33 g/mL)?

ANSWER:

Solution 50P:

Here, we are going to calculate the molality of a solution containing CCl4 and CH2Cl2.

We know that

Molality (m) =---(1)

Step 1:

Calculation of the mass of solute (CCl4):

Given that,

Volume of solute: 2.66 mL

Density of solute = Mass/volume = 1.59 g/mL

                                = 4.23 g

Therefore, mass of the CCl4 is 4.23 g.
