Acetone boils at 56.38^(@)C and a solution of 1.41 g of an organic compound in 20 g of acetone boils at 56.88^(@)C. Calculate the molar mass of the organic compound (Given k_(b) for acetone = 1.67 k kg/ mol).

Answer»

Solution :`DELTA T_(B) = K_(b) xx ` Molality
`Delta T_(b)= k_(b) xx (("mass of SOLUTE/molecular mass")xx 1000)/("mass of SOLVENT")`
`(56.88- 56.38) = (1.67 xx (1.41// "Msolute") xx 1000)/(20)`
Mass of solute (M) = 235.47
