Question
CBSEENCH12011484

Which of the following aqueous solution should have a highest boiling point?

  • 1.0 M NaOH

  • 1.0 M Na2SO4

  • 1.0 M NH4NO3

  • 10 MKNO3

Solution

B.

1.0 M Na2SO4

It depends on the Van't Hoff factor.

Van't Hoff factor is directly proportional to the boiling point.

In the case of Na2SO3, i is maximum  = 3

Hence it has maximum boiling points.
