Question

Which aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure

Answer 1

The possible options are :

(1) 1.0 M KC1(aq) (3) 2.0 M KCl(aq) (2) 1.0 M CaC12(aq) (4) 2.0 M CaC12(aq)

Answer is (4) 2.0 M CaC12(aq)

Step-by-step explanation:

vant Hoff factor highest BP has the most particles...ions CaCl2 forms 3 ==> Ca2+ and 2Cl-.

The van 't Hoff factor i (named after Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff) is a measure of the effect of a solute upon colligative properties such as osmotic pressure, relative lowering in vapor pressure, boiling-point elevation and freezing-point depression.

Answer 2

4. 2.0 M CaC12(aq)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the van't Hoff factor, (the measurement of the solute's colligative properties effect (boiling point,freezing point depression)) a solution that has the highest point at standard pressure, id the one with the most particles or ions.

van't Hoff factor can also be described as the ratio between the original concentration of the solutions's atoms when the solution is dissolved and the concentration of the solutions taken from its mass.
