Boiling point elevationMediumQuestion 750006
Question
ΔTb = Kb × m. If Kb of water = 0.52 K kg mol⁻¹ and 1 mol glucose is dissolved in 1 kg water, ΔTb is:
- A0.52 KCorrect
- B1.04 K
- C0.26 K
- D5.2 K
Correct answer
0.52 K
Explanation
ΔTb = Kb × m = 0.52 × 1 = 0.52 K. The new boiling point = 100 + 0.52 = 100.52°C.
