Given: R = 0.08 L atm K$^{-1}$ mol$^{-1}$
Assume complete dissociation of NaCl
(Given : Molar mass of Na and Cl are 23 and 35.5 g mol$^{-1}$ respectively.) A substance 'X' (1.5 g) dissolved in 150 g of a solvent 'Y' (molar mass = 300 g mol$^{-1}$) led to an elevation of the boiling point by 0.5 K. The relative lowering in the vapour pressure of the solvent 'Y' is $____________ \(\times 10^{-2}\). (nearest integer)
[Given : $K_{b}$ of the solvent = 5.0 K kg mol$^{-1}$]
Assume the solution to be dilute and no association or dissociation of X takes place in solution.- Which of the following mixture gives a buffer solution with \( \text{pH} = 9.25 \)?
