Question:

A solution of solute X in benzene boils at 0.126 oC higher than benzene. What is the molality of the solution? (Kb for benzene = 2.52 K/m)

Options:

0.05

2

1

20

Correct Answer:

0.05

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point, ΔTb = Kx m

m = \(\frac{ΔTb}{Kb}\)

m = \(\frac{0.126}{2.52}\) = 0.05 m
