49. A solvent-water mixture is to be distilled at 95C. The vapor pressure of the solvent at this temperature is 130 mmHg and that of
water is 640 mmHg. The solvent is immiscible in water and has a molecular weight of 150. The weight of the solvent that will be carried
over in the distillate with 200 kg of water is
50. The vapor pressure of water at 25C is 23.756 torr. A solution consisting of 18.913 g of a non-volatile substance in 36 grams of H2O
has a vapor pressure of 20.234 torr. What is the molecular weight of the solute?
51. A 240 g sample of pyrolusite was treated with excess potassium iodide. The iodine liberated required 46.24 mL of 0.1105 M
Na2S2O3 solution. Calculat the %MnO2 in the sample
52. A 2 g sample of an unknown metal, M, was completely burned in excess O2 to yield 0.224 mol of the metal oxide, M2O3, what is
the metal?
53. When 4.5 g of Fe2O3 is reduced with excess H2 in a furnace, 2.6 g of metallic iron is recovered. What is the % yield?
