Elevation of boiling point (Boiling point elevation = van’t Hoff factor × ebullioscopic constant × molality)
jee-mainjee-advancedneet-ug
Boiling point elevation = van’t Hoff factor × ebullioscopic constant × molality
What each symbol means
| Symbol | What it stands for |
|---|---|
| i | van’t Hoff factor |
| m | Molality (mol kg⁻¹) |
| K_b | Ebullioscopic constant of solvent |
| ΔT_b | T_b(solution) − T_b(pure solvent) |
When to use this
Dilute ideal solution; non-volatile solute for standard derivation; use solvent’s K_b.
