In three beakers labeled as
A
, Vapour pressure in all the three beakers is same.
B
and Vapour pressure of beaker B is highest.
C
, 100 mL, of water, 100 mL of 1 M solution of glucose inwater are taken respectively and kept at same temperature. 
Which of the following statement is correct Vapour pressure of beaker C is higher.
Which of the following statement is correct Vapour pressure of beaker C is higher.
D
Vapour pressure of beaker B is lower than that of C andvapour pressure of beaker C is lower than that of A.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Vapour pressure of a solution containing non volatile solute is less than that of the pure solvent. The decrease in vapour pressure depends upon the quantity of non volatile solute present in it. Hence, vapour pressure of A > C > B
