A 1.26 m aqueous solution of an ionic compound with the formula mx2 has a boiling point of 101.63 ∘c. part a calculate the van't hoff factor (i) for mx2 at this concentration. express your answer using two significant figures.

Respuesta :

Answer is: Van't Hoff factor (i) for this solution is 1.051 .
Change in boiling point from pure solvent to solution: ΔT =i · Kb · b.
Kb - 
molal boiling point elevation constant is 0.512°C/m.
b -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
b = 1.26 m.
ΔT = 101.63°C - 100
°C = 1.63°C.

i = 1.63°C ÷ (0.512°C/m · 1.26 m).

i = 1.051.

Answer:

The van't hoff factor is 2.49
