Chapter 7, Problem 7.82E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The error in the molecular weight of polymer is to bedetermined.

Concept introduction:

The molecular weight of impurity can be calculated by knowing the amount of contaminating molecules present per molecule. This contamination gives the erroneous results which affect the further steps in an experimental method.

When 14.3 g of a certain molecular compound X are dissolved in  85.0 g of benzene C6H6, the freezing point of the solution is measured to be 0.5 °C. Calculate the molar mass of X.   molal freezing point depression constant (Kf)°C·kg·mol−1 of benzen is 5.07   If you need any additional information on benzene, use only what you find in the ALEKS Data resource. Also, be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and is rounded to  2  significant digits.
A polymer of large molar mass is dissolved in the organic solvent tetrahydrofuran (C4H8O) at 25 °C, and the resulting solution rises to a final height of 12.7 cm above the level of the pure solvent, as solvent molecules pass through a semipermeable membrane into the solution. If the solution contains 3.61 g polymer per liter, calculate the molar mass of the polymer. Take the density of the solution to be 0.886 g cm³³. g mol-1 Molar mass polymer =
A sample of 2.05 g of polystyrene of uniform polymer chainlength was dissolved in enough toluene to form 0.100 L of solution.The osmotic pressure of this solution was found to be 1.21kPa at 25 °C. Calculate the molar mass of the polystyrene.
