Explanation / Answer

According to Ravoult's law

Psolution = Xsolvent P°solvent

   Psolution = 456.06mmHg

P°solvent = 463.57mmHg

Therefore,

Xsolvent = 456.06mmHg/463.57mmHg =0.9838

Therefore,

mole fraction of diethyl ether must be 0.9838

mole fraction of diethyl ether = no of moles of diethyl eather/total no of moles

No of mole of diethy ether = 180.3g/74.12g/mol = 2.4325

0.9838= 2.4325/Total no of moles

Total no of moles = 2.4325/0.9838 = 2.4726

No of moles of Aspirin = 2.4726 - 2.4325 = 0.0401

Molar mass of Aspirin = 180.1g/mol

Mass of aspirin should be added = 180.1g/mol × 0.0401mol = 7.2220g
