Which of the following aqueous solutions should have the highest boiling point ?
Answer»
1.0 M NaOH `1.0 M Na_(2)SO_(4)` `1.0 M NH_(4)NO_(3)` `1.0M KNO_(3)`
Solution :Explanation : In 1.0 M `Na_(2)SO_(4)` solution vant Hoff factor, `i gt 1` and is maximum hen compared with the other three glven electrolytes. So, the extent of dissociation in case of 1.0 M `Na_(2)SO_(4)` would be highest yielding maximum no. of ions as compared to the other GIVEN electrolytes in their 1.0 M SOLUTIONS.
