What is the boiling point of a 0.5 m aqueous NaCl solution? Assume complete dissociation. (Kb of water = 0.512 ° C/m)

  1. 100.256 °C
  2. 100.512 °C
  3. 99.488 °C
  4. 100.768 °C

Answer

B. 100.512 °C

Solution

NaCl gives i = 2 particles. Tb = iKb m = 2(0.512)(0.5) = 0.512 ° C Tb = 100.512 ° C.
