The correct answer is Option (3) → Ebullioscopic Constant
Quick Explanation:
- Boiling Point Elevation Constant ($K_b$): It is the constant used in the formula for elevation of boiling point ($ΔT_b = K_b × m$), where m is molality.
- It is also called the Ebullioscopic Constant (from "ebullioscopy," meaning measurement of boiling points).
Why others are wrong:
- Cryoscopic Constant: This is $K_f$, used for freezing point depression ($ΔT_f = K_f × m$).
- Molar Depression Constant: This refers to $K_f$ (freezing point depression), not boiling point elevation.
- Boiling Constant: Not a standard term; it's just a vague name.
