Determine the new boiling point of an aqueous 2.50 M ethylene glycol, HOCH2CH2OH, solution. The Kb for water is 0.52 (°C∙kg) /mol. Assume that the boiling point of water is 100.00°C.
Added by Rosa J.
Step 1
52 (°C·kg) /mol, and the molality (m) of the solution is 2.50 mol/kg, we can plug in these values to find the elevation of the boiling point. \[\Delta T_b = 1 \times 0.52 \times 2.50\] \[\Delta T_b = 1.3°C\] ** Show more…
