Sample questions on Solutions with answers

8 questions from the practice bank, spread across the chapter's topics. The full set is in the app.

Question 1: Colligative Properties

The solution of NaCl that is isotonic with blood is:

  1. A 20%
  2. B 9%
  3. C 0.9% (mass/volume), known as saline
  4. D 0.09%

Answer: C. 0.9% (mass/volume), known as saline

Why: It has the same osmotic pressure as the blood cells.

Question 2: Concentration Terms and Raoult's Law

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute per:

  1. A litre of solvent
  2. B litre of solution
  3. C kg of solvent
  4. D kg of solution

Answer: B. litre of solution

Why: Molarity = moles of solute / volume of solution (in litres), not per volume of solvent alone.

Question 3: Colligative Properties

When a solute associates in solution, as benzoic acid does in benzene, the van't Hoff factor is:

  1. A equal to 1
  2. B greater than 1
  3. C equal to zero
  4. D less than 1

Answer: D. less than 1

Why: Association reduces the number of particles, so the observed colligative property is smaller and the apparent molar mass is higher.

Question 4: Concentration Terms and Raoult's Law

A mixture of nitric acid and water shows a negative deviation, and its azeotrope:

  1. A cannot form
  2. B boils at a lower temperature
  3. C boils at a higher temperature than either component (maximum boiling azeotrope)
  4. D is a gas

Answer: C. boils at a higher temperature than either component (maximum boiling azeotrope)

Why: The composition is about 68% nitric acid.

Question 5: Colligative Properties

Reverse osmosis is used for the desalination of sea water. It requires applying a pressure that is:

  1. A less than the osmotic pressure
  2. B greater than the osmotic pressure of the solution
  3. C equal to atmospheric pressure only
  4. D zero

Answer: B. greater than the osmotic pressure of the solution

Why: The pressure forces the solvent through the membrane from the solution side.

Question 6: Concentration Terms and Raoult's Law

The mole fraction of the solvent in a solution is 0.8. If the vapour pressure of the pure solvent is 100 mm Hg, the vapour pressure of the solution is:

  1. A 20 mm Hg
  2. B 100 mm Hg
  3. C 125 mm Hg
  4. D 80 mm Hg

Answer: D. 80 mm Hg

Why: Raoult's law: p = x_solvent × p° = 0.8 × 100 = 80 mm Hg.

Question 7: Colligative Properties

The van't Hoff factor (i) for a solute that dissociates completely into 3 ions in solution is:

  1. A 1
  2. B 2
  3. C 3
  4. D 0

Answer: C. 3

Why: The van't Hoff factor represents the number of particles a solute dissociates into in solution; for complete dissociation into 3 ions, i = 3.

Question 8: Concentration Terms and Raoult's Law

According to Raoult's law, the vapor pressure of a solution containing a non-volatile solute is:

  1. A higher than that of the pure solvent
  2. B lower than that of the pure solvent
  3. C equal to that of the pure solvent
  4. D independent of the solvent's vapor pressure

Answer: B. lower than that of the pure solvent

Why: Adding a non-volatile solute lowers the mole fraction of solvent, so by Raoult's law, the solution's vapor pressure is lower than the pure solvent's.
