Suppose 3.005 g of a nonvolatile solute is added to 20.02 g of water (the solvent), and the boiling point increases from 100.000 OC to 101.286 OC. Determine the TB, molality, moles, and molecular weight for the solute if kb for water is 0.512 OC/m. Report each value using the correct number of significant digits. Refer to Example 1.2 and pages 3-4 in the chapter 1 notes for general chemistry 1 to understand significant figures.

Answer:

* [tex]\Delta T_B=1.286\°C[/tex]

* [tex]m=2.5m[/tex]

* [tex]n=0.05mol[/tex]

* [tex]M=59.76g/mol[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the boiling point rise problem, we consider its appropriate equation:

[tex]\Delta T_B=imK_b[/tex]

Whereas i is the van't Hoff factor that for this nonvolatile solute is 1, m is the molality, Kb the boiling point constant of water as it is the solvent and ΔT the temperature difference. In such a way, with the given information we obtain:

- ΔT:

[tex]\Delta T_B=101.286\°C-100.000\°C\\\\\Delta T_B=1.286\°C[/tex]

- Molality (mol/kg):

[tex]m=\frac{\Delta T_B}{i*K_b}=\frac{1.286\°C}{1*0.512\°C/m}\\ \\m=2.5m[/tex]

- Moles for 20.02 g (0.02002 kg) of water:

[tex]n=2.5mol/kg*0.02002kg\\\\n=0.05mol[/tex]

- Molar mass:

[tex]M=\frac{mass}{moles}=\frac{3.005g}{0.050mol} \\\\M=59.76g/mol[/tex]

Best regards.
