A 0.1 molal aqueous solution of a weak acid (HA) is 30 % ionized. If Kf for water is 1.86 °C/m, the freezing point of the solution will be:
| 1. | –0.24 °C | 2. | –0.18 °C |
| 3. | –0.54 °C | 4. | –0.36 °C |
Isotonic solutions have the same:

| 1. | 40 | 2. | 60 |
| 3. | 80 | 4. | 20 |
The positive deviations from Raoult’s law mean the vapour pressure is:
1. Higher than expected.
2. Lower than expected.
3. As expected.
4. None of the above

Henry’s law constant for the solution of methane in benzene at 298 K is 4.27 × 105 mm Hg. The mole fraction of methane in benzene at 298 K under 760 mm Hg will be:
1. 1.85 × 10–5
2. 192 × 10–4
3. 178 × 10–5
4. 18.7 × 10–5
The solubility of gases in liquids generally decreases as temperature increases.
The primary reason for this behavior is:
| 1. | Dissolution of a gas in a liquid is an endothermic process. |
| 2. | Dissolution of a gas in a liquid is an exothermic process. |
| 3. | Gases are highly compressible. |
| 4. |
All of the above statements are correct. |
Which law is applied when deep-sea divers use a breathing mixture of oxygen and less soluble helium to minimise the painful effects caused by the increased dissolution of gases in blood at high pressure?
