Q.

At 100°C the vapour pressure of a solution of 6.5 g of a solute in 100 g water is 732 mm. If Kb = 0.52, the boiling point of this solution will be              [2016]

1 102 °C  
2 103 °C  
3 101 °C  
4 100 °C

Given: WB=6.5 g, WA=100 g

ps=732 mm, Kb=0.52, Tb0=100°C, p0=760 mm

po-pspo=n2n1    760-732760=n2100/18

n2=28×100760×18=0.2046 mol

ΔTb=Kb×m

Tb-Tbo=Kb×n2×1000WA(g)

Tb-100°C=0.52×0.2046×1000100=1.06

Tb=100+1.06=101.06°C
