Determine the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene. Benzene has a boiling point of 80.1°C and a boiling point elevation constant of 2.53°C•kg/mol.

Respuesta :

Answer: The boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is [tex]89.5^0C[/tex]

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point:

[tex]\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m[/tex]

where,

[tex]\Delta T_b[/tex] = change in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for benzene which is a non electrolyte )

[tex]k_b[/tex] = boiling point constant = [tex]2.53^0C/kgmol[/tex]

m = molality = 3.70

[tex]T_{solution}-T_{solvent}=i\times k_b\times m[/tex]

[tex]T_{solution}-80.1^0C=1\times 2.53\times 3.70[/tex]

[tex]T_{solution}=89.5^0C[/tex]

Thus  the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is [tex]89.5^0C[/tex]
