Question:

\(2\ g\) of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute is dissolved in \(200\ g\) of two different solvents A and B whose ebullioscopic constants are in the ratio of \(1:8\). The elevation in boiling points of A and B are in the ratio \(\frac xy\ (x : y)\). The value of \(y\) is ______ . (Nearest Integer)

Correct Answer: 8

Solution and Explanation

\(ΔT_b = k_bm\)
\(\frac {(ΔT_b)_A}{(ΔT_b)_B} = \frac {(k_b)_A}{(k_b)_B}\)
\(⇒ \frac 18 = \frac xy\)
\(∴ y = 8\)
So, the answer is \(8\).

Solutions

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.

For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.

Types of Solutions:

The solutions can be classified into three types:

  • Solid Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Solid-state.
  • Liquid Solutions- In these solutions, the solvent is in a Liquid state.
  • Gaseous Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Gaseous state.

On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:

  1. Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
  2. Saturated Solution- A solution in which no solute can be dissolved after reaching a certain amount of temperature is known as an unsaturated saturated solution.
  3. Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
