Problem 84
The elemental analysis of an organic solid extracted from gum arabic (a gummy substance used in adhesives, inks, and pharmaceuticals) showed that it contained 40.0 percent \(\mathrm{C}, 6.7\) percent \(\mathrm{H}\), and 53.3 percent \(\mathrm{O}\). A solution of \(0.650 \mathrm{~g}\) of the solid in \(27.8 \mathrm{~g}\) of the solvent diphenyl gave a freezing-point depression of \(1.56^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Calculate the molar mass and molecular formula of the solid. \(\left(K_{\mathrm{f}}\right.\) for diphenyl is \(8.00^{\circ} \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m} .\) )
Problem 86
The molar mass of benzoic acid \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{COOH}\right)\) determined by measuring the freezing-point depression in benzene is twice what we would expect for the molecular formula, \(\mathrm{C}_{7} \mathrm{H}_{6} \mathrm{O}_{2} .\) Explain this apparent anomaly.
Problem 87
A solution containing \(0.8330 \mathrm{~g}\) of a polymer of unknown structure in \(170.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) of an organic solvent was found to have an osmotic pressure of \(5.20 \mathrm{mmHg}\) at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Determine the molar mass of the polymer.
Problem 88
A quantity of \(7.480 \mathrm{~g}\) of an organic compound is dissolved in water to make \(300.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) of solution. The solution has an osmotic pressure of \(1.43 \mathrm{~atm}\) at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The analysis of this compound shows that it contains 41.8 percent \(\mathrm{C}, 4.7\) percent \(\mathrm{H}, 37.3\) percent \(\mathrm{O},\) and 16.3 percent \(\mathrm{N}\). Calculate the molecular formula of the compound.
Problem 89
A solution of \(6.85 \mathrm{~g}\) of a carbohydrate in \(100.0 \mathrm{~g}\) of water has a density of \(1.024 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}\) and an osmotic pressure of 4.61 atm at \(20.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Calculate the molar mass of the carbohydrate.
