Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistrySolutions
What will be the correct order of vapour pressure of water, acetone and ether at 30^ C . Given that among these compounds, water has maximum boiling point and ether has minimum boiling point?
Options
- AWater < ether < acetone
- BWater < acetone < ether
- CEther < acetone < water
- DAcetone < ether < water
Correct answer
B. Water < acetone < ether
Step-by-step solution
Greater the boiling point, less is the vapour pressure. Hence, the correct order of vapour pressure wil be Water < acetone < ether
