The boiling point of a 2% (w/w) aqueous solution of a non-volatile, non-electrolyte solute is 0.102 oC higher than pure water. Calculate the molecular mass of the solute knowing that its Kb is 0.52 K.Kg mol-1.
Added by Allison M.
Step 1
The boiling point is 0.102 °C higher than that of pure water. We need to calculate the molecular mass of the solute using the given boiling point elevation and the molal boiling point constant (Kb) of 0.52 K.Kg mol-1. Show more…
