Document preview thumbnail
Preview 2 out of 6 pages

This document is an Exam 1 for a General Chemistry I course (ACHM 121). It contains multiple-choice questions with correct answers highlighted in yellow. The exam covers introductory chemistry topics including thermochemistry, solution composition, atomic behavior during melting, and colligative properties such as freezing-point depression. The layout suggests it is an instructor-provided study resource or answer key intended to help students review core chemistry concepts and calculation skills.

elevation of the boiling point of a solution upon addition of a solute to a solvent
depression of the freezing point of a solution upon addition of a solute to a solvent
an increase in the osmotic pressure of a solution upon the addition of more solute
tendency to become supersaturated


7. Consider the phase diagram below. If the dashed line at 1 atm of pressure is followed from 100 to
500 °C, what phase changes will occur (in order of increasing temperature)?




melting, followed by vaporization
sublimation, followed by deposition
vaporization, followed by deposition
sublimation, followed by vaporization
No phase change will occur under the conditions specified.




8. Determine the boiling point elevation of a solution that contains 22.5 g of glucose in 500.0 g
ethanol (glucose C6H12O6 molar mass = 180.156 g/mol, ethanol Kb = 1.22°C/m.)
