$0.1$ molal aqueous solution of an electrolyte $A B_{3}$ is $90 \%$ ionised. The boiling point of the solution at 1 atm is : $\quad\left(K_{b\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)}=0.52 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\right.$ ) (a) $273.19 \mathrm{~K}$ (b) $374.92 \mathrm{~K}$ (c) $376.4 \mathrm{~K}$ (d) $373.19 \mathrm{~K}$
Identify each substance as a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte. (a) $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}$ (b) $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}$ (c) $\mathrm{HNO}_{3}$ (d) $\mathrm{KOH}$
