<u>Answer:</u> The boiling point elevation of salt water solution is 0.55°C
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:
Density of water = 1 g/mL
Volume of water = 122 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:
To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:
Or,
where,
= ?
i = Vant hoff factor = 2 (For NaCl)
= molal boiling point elevation constant = 0.52°C/m.g
= Given mass of solute (NaCl) = 3.80 g
= Molar mass of solute (NaCl) = 58.55 g/mol
= Mass of solvent (water) = 122 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the boiling point elevation of salt water solution is 0.55°C
