Q.

Arrange the following solutions in order of their increasing boiling points.          [2025]

(i)  10-4M NaCl
(ii)  10-4M Urea
(iii)  10-3M NaCl
(iv)  10-2M NaCl

1 (ii) < (i) ≡ (iii) < (iv)  
2 (iv) < (iii) < (i) < (ii)  
3 (ii) < (i) < (iii) < (iv)  
4 (i) < (ii) < (iii) < (iv)  

Ans.

i=2

Urea is non-electrolyte so, i=1.

Elevation in boiling point ΔTb=ikbm. So higher is concentration and more is i, more will be the boiling point.
