On dissolving `3.24 g` of sulphur in `40 g` of benzene, the boiling point of the solution was higher than sulphur? (`K_(b)` for benzene = `2.53 K kg mol^(-1)` , atomic mass of sulphur `= 32 g mol^(-1)`).

Answer» The given values are:
`W_(B) = 3.24 g`, `W_(A) = 40 g`
`DeltaT_(b) = 0.81 K`, `K_(b) = 2.53 Kg mol^(-1)`
Using formula, `Mw_(B) = (K_(b) xx 1000 xx W_(B)) /(DeltaT_(b) xx W_(A))`
On substituting all the values, we get
`:. Mw_(B) = (2.53 xx 1000xx 3.24) / (0.81 xx 40) = 253`
Let the molecular formula of sulphur = `S_(x)`
Atomic mass of sulphur = `32`
Molecular mass = `32 xx x`
`:. 32x = 253`
`x= (253)/(32) = 7.91 ~~ 8`
`:.` Molecular formula of sulphur `= S_(8)`
