Question

18 g of glucose, C6H12O6, is dissolved in 1 kg of water in a saucepan.At what temperature will water boil at 1.013 bar?
Kb for water is 0.52 K kg mol1

Open in App
Solution

Molality of glucose
Given,
Amount of glucose=18 g

So,
Moles of glucose=18 g180 g mol1=0.1mol

Amount of solvent =1 kg

Molality of glucose solution=number of moles of soluteamount of solute=0.11 kg

Molality of glucose solution=0.1 mol kg1

Temperature at which water will boil
We know, change in boiling point ΔTb is given by,
ΔTb=Kb×m
=0.52 K kg mol1×0.1 mol kg1=0.052 K

Since water boils at 373.15 K at 1.013 bar pressure, therefore, the boiling point of solution will be 373.15+0.052=373.202 K.
