Question

Explain each of the following statements: (a) The boiling point of seawater is higher than that of pure water. (b) Carbon dioxide escapes from the solution when the cap is removed from a carbonated soft-drink bottle. (c) Molal and molar concentrations of dilute aqueous solutions are approximately equal. (d) In discussing the colligative properties of a solution (other than osmotic pressure), it is preferable to express the concentration in units of molality rather than in molarity. (e) Methanol (b.p. $65^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ ) is useful as an antifreeze, but it should be removed from the car radiator during the summer season.

Explain each of the following statements: (a) The boiling point of seawater is higher than that of pure water. (b) Carbon dioxide escapes from the solution when the cap is removed from a carbonated softdrink bottle. (c) Molal and molar concentrations of dilute aqueous solutions are approximately equal. (d) In discussing the colligative properties of a solution (other than osmotic pressure), it is preferable to express the concentration in units of molality rather than in molarity. (e) Methanol (b.p. $65^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ ) is useful as an antifreeze, but it should be removed from the car radiator during the summer season.

You make two solutions of a nonvolatile solute with a liquid solvent, $0.01 \mathrm{M}$ and $1.00 \mathrm{M}$. Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. (a) The vapor pressure of the concentrated solution is higher than that of the diluted solution. (b) The osmotic pressure of the concentrated solution is higher than that of the diluted solution. (c) The boiling point of the concentrated solution is higher than that of the diluted solution. (d) The freezing point of the concentrated solution is higher than that of the diluted solution.

00:01 So why sea water will have a higher boiling point? just think about the collagative properties.
00:09 We know that if a solution has a higher molality, then the boiling point will be higher.
00:18 For b, when the pressure drops in a system, the solubility of a gas, so this is for gases, also goes down.
00:33 So that's why you open the bottle of soda, you see this gas is escaping to the atmosphere because the solubility got decreased.
00:47 Okay.
00:48 Now let's think molality and molarity.
00:52 One will be number of moles per mass in kilograms and the other one is number of moles per volume and liters.
01:04 And the thing is, water, pure water, and also for very diluted solutions, we know that one kilogram of water is very close to one liter of water.
01:20 So that's why for diluted solutions, the molality is close to the molarity.
01:31 Now, d, why do we prefer molality when we're dealing with changes in freezing point or boiling point? well, in this case, we're talking about temperature.
01:48 And the thing is, the molality, as we saw here, is defined with respect to the mass and not volume.
01:57 And volume changes with temperature...
