Answer: 374.2 K
Explanation:- Elevation in boiling point is:
[tex]\Delta T_b=k_b\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}[/tex]
[tex]T_f[/tex] = change in boiling point
[tex]k_b[/tex] = boiling point constant=[tex]2.53Kkg/mol[/tex]
m = molality
Given: mass of solute [tex](I_2)[/tex]= 9.04 g
Molar mass of solute [tex](I_2)[/tex]= 254 g/mol
Weight of solvent (benzene)= 75.5 g= 0.0755 kg
[tex]\Delta T_b=2.53 Kkg/mol\times \frac{9.04g}{254g/mol\times 0.0755kg}=1.2K[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_b=1.2 K=T_b-T^0_b=T_b-373K[/tex]
[tex]T_b=374.2K[/tex]
The boiling point of the solution is [tex]374.2K[/tex].
