MCQs on Boiling Point Elevation

The boiling point of a solution is always higher than the pure solvent. The boiling point increases as we add non-volatile solutes in a pure solvent. The elevation of boiling point is dependent on the number of solute particles and not on their nature. For dilute solutions, the elevation in boiling point is proportional to the molal concentration of the solute. The boiling point elevation of a solution is a colligative property, as it depends on the number of solute molecules rather than their nature.
