The unit of Boiling point Elevation Constant ($K_b$) is |
$K\, kg\, mol^{-1}$ $K\, kg\, mol$ $K\, kg^{-1}\, mol$ $K\, kg^{-1}\, mol^{-1}$ |
$K\, kg\, mol^{-1}$ |
The correct answer is Option (1) → $K\, kg\, mol^{-1}$
$\Delta T_b = K_b \cdot m$ where:
Rearranging for Kb: $K_b = \frac{\Delta T_b}{m} ⇒\text{units of } K_b = \frac{\text{K}}{\text{mol/kg}} = \text{K·kg·mol}^{-1}$ Hence, the unit is K·kg·mol-1. |
