What is the approximate molar mass of a molecular solute if 300 g of the solute in 1000 g of water causes the solution to have a boiling point of 101°c? (kb = 0.512°c/m; kf = 1.86°c/m; molar mass of water = 18 g)

The molar mass of solute is 156 g/mol

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point is defined as the difference in the boiling point of solution and boiling point of pure solution.

The equation used to calculate elevation in boiling point follows:

= ? °C

Boiling point of pure water = 100°C

Boiling point of solution = 101°C  

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

Or,

where,

= 1°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (For non-electrolytes)

= molal boiling point elevation constant = 0.52°C/m.g

= Given mass of solute = 300 g

= Molar mass of solute  = ?

= Mass of solvent (water) = 1000 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the molar mass of solute is 156 g/mol

the major pests we deal with are insects, weeds and fungal diseases. a pesticide is a product, whether organic or chemical, used to kill the target pest. there are other techniques gardeners should use that can prevent the severe infestations that make the use of pesticides necessary
