Boiling point of water at 750 mm Hg is 99.63°C. How much sucrose is to be added to 500 g of water such that it boils at 100°C. Molal elevation constant for water is 0.52 K kg mol⁻¹.

Solution

Here, elevation of boiling point ΔT_b = (100 + 273) − (99.63 + 273)

= 0.37 K

Mass of water, w_l = 500 g

Molar mass of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁), M₂ = 11 × 12 + 22 × 1 + 11 × 16

= 342 g mol⁻¹

Molal elevation constant, K_b = 0.52 K kg mol⁻¹

We know that:

= 121.67 g (approximately)

Hence, 121.67 g of sucrose is to be added.

Note: There is a slight variation in this answer and the one given in the NCERT textbook.
