Identify the correct relation between the molar mass of solute and Ebullioscopic constant. |
\(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times w_1}{\Delta T_b \times K_b}\) \(\Delta T_b = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b \times M_2}{w_1}\) \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\) \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_1 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_2}\) |
\(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\) |
The correct answer is option 3. \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\). To identify the correct relation between the molar mass of the solute (\(M_2\)) and the ebullioscopic constant (\(K_b\)), let us start by analyzing the fundamental equations and concepts related to boiling point elevation. The formula for boiling point elevation (\(\Delta T_b\)) is given by: \(\Delta T_b = K_b \times m\) -----(1) where: \(\Delta T_b\) is the boiling point elevation, \(K_b\) is the ebullioscopic constant, \(m\) is the molality of the solution. Molality (\(m\)) is defined as: \(m = \frac{n_2}{w_1} \times 1000\) ------(2) where: \(n_2\) is the number of moles of solute, \(w_1\) is the mass of the solvent in kilograms, The factor \(1000\) converts the molality from \( \text{mol/kg} \) to \( \text{mol/1000 g} \). The number of moles of solute (\(n_2\)) is: \(n_2 = \frac{w_2}{M_2}\) ----(3) where: \(w_2\) is the mass of the solute, \(M_2\) is the molar mass of the solute. From equation (2) and (3) \(m = \frac{\frac{w_2}{M_2}}{w_1} \times 1000 = \frac{1000 \times w_2}{M_2 \times w_1}\) \(\Delta T_b = K_b \times \frac{1000 \times w_2}{M_2 \times w_1}\) or, \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\) Based on the above derivation, the correct relation between the molar mass of the solute (\(M_2\)) and the ebullioscopic constant (\(K_b\)) is: \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\) So, the correct option is:3. \(M_2 = \frac{1000 \times w_2 \times K_b}{\Delta T_b \times w_1}\) |
