Explain why on addition of 1 mol glucose to 1 litre water the boiling point of water increases. 

Answer»

Vapour pressure of the solvent decreases in the presence of non-volatile solute (glucose) hence boiling point increases.

Detailed Answer:

Addition of non-volatile solute ie, glucose in water, lowers the vapour Pressure of water. As a result, boiling point of water increases.
