Disinfectants are chemicals in liquid form which destroy micro organisms. They are usually applied to the surfaces of non-living objects in order to kill microbes that are located on those surfaces. Disinfectants are usually used in the hospitals, kitchens, bathrooms, etc to kill infectious microbes. There are different types of disinfectants and the choice of the type to use depends on the kind of microbes involved. Disinfectants are used when there is a possibility that a surface has been infected with infectious agents.

Which of these solutes raises the boiling point of water the most?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
The answer is <span>ionic aluminum fluoride (</span>AlF3). Note that boiling points of pure solvents are raised in the presence of solutes. The type of solute also affects the boiling point elevation of the solution. Ionic substances tend to raise it more than covalent ones, so sucrose is out of the picture. Next, consider the number of ions the ionic substance produces. The more ions, the greater the BPE. AlF3 dissociates into 4 ions.
