SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the boiling point behavior of mixtures of trichloromethane and ethyl ethanoate, and hexane and propanone. The first mixture shows a boiling point elevation followed by a decrease, while the second mixture exhibits a decrease followed by a slight increase. This phenomenon is attributed to the nature of the solution, specifically whether it is an ideal or non-ideal solution, which affects the intermolecular attractions between the components. The results highlight the importance of understanding solution characteristics in predicting boiling point changes.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of ideal and non-ideal solutions
  • Knowledge of boiling point elevation concepts
  • Familiarity with trichloromethane and ethyl ethanoate properties
  • Basic principles of liquid-liquid mixtures
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the concept of ideal vs. non-ideal solutions in detail
  • Study the effects of intermolecular forces on boiling points
  • Explore the Raoult's Law and its applications in boiling point predictions
  • Investigate the boiling point behavior of other liquid mixtures
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, researchers in physical chemistry, and anyone studying liquid mixtures and their boiling point behaviors.

help!can anyone answer my question!

it is the experiment that i did in school!~
topic:boiling point with composition for different mixtures of two miscibe liquids


first: mixing trichloromethane and ethyl ethanoate
so the following is the result~
Volume of trichloromethane/cm3
10 10 10 10 5 2 0
Volume of ethyl ethanoate/cm3
0 2 5 10 10 10 10
Volume % of ethyl ethanoate
Boiling point/0C
60 65 70 68 67 66 63








by plotting boiling point against volume %of ethyl ethanoate . we can see the curve rise but after drop , so why this happen !~??/
can anyone explain in detail ?
help me please!~
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
another

the boiling point of mixing hexane and propanone just opposite .
it's curve drop but rise slightly .
why ?
Volume of trichloromethane/cm3
10 10 10 10 5 2 0
Volume of ethyl ethanoate/cm3
0 2 5 10 10 10 10
Volume % of ethyl ethanoate
Boiling point/0C
67 52 49 54 52 57 59
 
It all depends on the type of solution, whether it is an ideal solution, non-ideal solution etc...this pertains to the attraction characteristics between the two components.

If it is a ideal solution, then the mixtures will exhibit boiling point elevation with the higher boiling points exhibited by the mixture rather the the individual pure solutions (this is what you have with the trichloromethane and ethyl ethanoate), quite different for the vice versa situation.

I'll try to explain it in more detail if you're still wondering about it.
