Question

Choose the correct relation for boiling point elevation constant (Kb)
where :

Tb is boiling point of pure solvent
M is molar mass of the solvent
Lvap is the molar enthalpy of vapourisation per gram of the solvent
R is ideal gas constant
(All quantities to be taken in SI units)

Open in App
Solution

Kb is Boiling Point Elevation Constant or Molal Elevation Constant
It is also known as ebullioscopic constant.
Unit of Ebullioscopic constant is K kg mol1.
It is the property of the solvent and is independent of the solute.
Kb=R×T2b×M1000×ΔHvap=R×T2b1000×Lvap

ΔHvap is the molar enthalpy of vapourisation of the solvent
