0.456 gram of an organic compound (Molecular mass = 100u) is dissolved in 31.14 grams of acetone. Calculate the boiling point of solution if Kb= 17.2 and boiling point of acetone = 56.2 degree Celsius.
First calculate the elevation in boiling point,
ΔTb = (Kf x wb x 1000) / (MB x wA)
wb = 0.45 g
wA = 31.14 g
MB = 100 x 1.66 x 10-24 g.
ΔTb = Tb' - Tb
Tb' = ΔTb + Tb
