Some
of the solutions exhibit
colligative properties. These properties depend on the amount of solute
dissolved in a solvent. These properties include freezing point depression, boiling
point elevation, osmotic pressure and vapor pressure lowering. For boiling point elevation, we calculate as follows:
ΔT(boiling point) = (Kb)m
ΔT(boiling point) = 0.51 (3.60)
ΔT(boiling point) = 1.836 °C
T = 100 + 1.836 = 101.836 °C
