A 1.00 molal aqueous solution of trichloroacetic acid ("CCl"_3COOH)is heated to its boilingpoint. The solution has a boiling point of 100.18^@C . Determine the van't Hoff factor for trichloro acetic acid (K_b " for water" = 0.512 K kg "mol"^(-1) ) .

Answer»

Solution :Apply the relation
` Delta T_b = K_f xx m`
` Delta T_b = 0.512 xx 1 = 0.512`
van.t HOFF FACTO =Observed ELEVATION in boiling POINT / CALCULATED elevation in boiling point
`= (0.18)/(0.512) = 0.3516`
