b) It is found that the boiling point ofa binary solution of AandB with
pure Bare 110.1 kPa and 76.5

above the solution?

4.00 bar
Nitrogen and hydrogen are mixed at partial pressures of 1.00 bar and
respectively and allowed to reach equilibrium with their product, ammonia. Calculate
the composition of asystem in which K= 89.8.

d) Raoult's law states that addition of a non-volatile solute should lower the vapour
pressure of a solvent - the extent of which determines if the solution is ideal or not..
Explain the molecular origin of this phenomenon. Under what conditions will the
solution show positive deviation from this rule?

02 Asample containing 2.0 mol of He undergoes isothermal expansion at 295 Kfrom 22.8 L (4)

gas. Calculate q, w, AUand AH for the process.
(HINT:Calculate the pex by assuming the gas is ideal)
OR
a) When 3 mol of , ís heated at a constant pressure of 3.25 atm, its temperature
increases from 260 Kto 285 K. Given that the molar heat capacity of O, at constant
pressure is 29,4 J/(K. mol), calculate q, AH and AU.

b) The standard reaction enthalpy for the hydrogenation of propene and the combustion (4)
of propane are as follows:
Reaction AHm
