Degree of dissociation: It is the extent to which any reactant gets dissociated. It is denoted by .
If "a" be the initial number of moles and the number of moles dissociated be "x" then
Relation between degree of dissociation and Observed Molar mass/Vapor density
Due to dissociation, the total number of moles at equilibrium can be determined. Knowing the number of moles at equilibrium, the observed molar mass can be calculated.
Conversely, if the degree of dissociation is not known but the Observed Vapor density is available, then we can calculate the degree of dissociation.
We know about the law of conservation of mass
Using the above equation, we can calculate the unknown term required to be calculated.
In equilibrium, the observed molar mass or average molar mass of the reactant is the total mass of the mixture divided by the total number of moles.
Initially: 1 0
Equil: 1 - ? n?
In the equilibrium system, the observed molar mass of the reactant is always different than the actual mass. Thus, when the reaction is reversible, the observed mass varies. In a chemical reaction, some amount of this reactant gets converted into a product, thus observed mass is different from than actual mass.
For example:
In this reaction, the original molar mass of N2O4 = 92g/mol. But the observed molar mass at equilibrium is 80g/mol. The observed molar mass is less than the original molar mass as during the reaction some amount of N2O4 is converted into NO2.
Vapour Density
Similarly, the observed density of the substance is different than the actual density.
Thus, we know:
Vapour density = Molar mass/2
