CBSEENCH12010930

Which one of the following aqueous solutions will exhibit highest boiling point?

  • 0.01 M Na2SO4

  • 0.015 M glucose

  • 0.015 M urea

  • 0.01 M KNO3

Solution

A.

0.01 M Na2SO4

Boiling space point space equals space straight T subscript straight o space left parenthesis solvent right parenthesis space plus increment straight T subscript straight b space left parenthesis Elevation space in space bp right parenthesis
increment straight T subscript straight b space equals space miK subscript straight b
where space straight m space is space the space molality space
straight i space equals space van apostrophe straight t space Hoff space factor space equals space left square bracket 1 plus space left parenthesis straight y minus 1 right parenthesis straight x right square bracket
straight K subscript straight b space molal space elevation space constant
thus space increment straight T subscript straight b space proportional to space straight i
