Question:

The unit of ebullioscopic constant is ______.

Updated On: Jun 7, 2022
  • $K \,kg\, mol^{-1}\,$ or $\, K \,(\text{molality})^{-1}$
  • $mol\, kg\, K^{-1}\, $ or $\, K^{-1}\, (\text{molality})$
  • $ kg \,mol^{-1} \, K^{-1} \,$ or $\, K^{-1}\, (\text{molality})^{-1}$
  • $K \, mol\, kg^{-1} \,$ or $\, K\, \text{(molality)}$

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

As we know from elevation in boiling point that $U$
$\Delta T_b = K_b m$

Unit of $K_b = \frac{\text{Unit of } \Delta T_b}{\text{Unit of} \,m}$
$= \frac{K}{mol\,kg^{-1}} = K\,mol^{-1} kg$

Rate of a Chemical Reaction

The rate of a chemical reaction is defined as the change in concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

Consider the reaction A → B,

Rate of the reaction is given by,

Rate = −d[A]/ dt=+d[B]/ dt

Where, [A] → concentration of reactant A

[B] → concentration of product B

(-) A negative sign indicates a decrease in the concentration of A with time.

(+) A positive sign indicates an increase in the concentration of B with time.

Factors Determining the Rate of a Reaction:

There are certain factors that determine the rate of a reaction:

  1. Temperature
  2. Catalyst
  3. Reactant Concentration
  4. Chemical nature of Reactant
  5. Reactant Subdivision rate
