Question

A solution of 2.5 g of a non-volatile solid in 100 g benzene is boiled at 0.42oC higher than the boiling point of pure benzene. Calculate the molecular mass of the substance. Molal elevation constant of benzene is 2.67 K.kg.mol1

Open in App
Solution

M=1000Kb×wW×T

Given,
Kb=2.67 K.kg.mol1,
w=2.5 g,
W=100 g,
T=0.42K

Now,

M=1000×2.67×2.5100×0.42=158.9

The molecular weight of substance is 158.9 g/mol
