If aqueous solution contains \(9 \%\) and \(1 \%\) \((w / w)\) of two non-volatile non-electrolytes \(X\) (molecular weight 180) and \(Y\) (molecular weight 50) respectively, the boiling point of solution in \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) approximately is \(\left(K_b=0.52 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\right)\)
  1. 101.4
  2. 100.4
  3. 102.4
  4. 100.8

Solution

Given, Mass of non-volatile solute \(X=9 \mathrm{~g}\) Mass of non-volatile solute \(Y=\mathbf{l} \mathbf{g}\) Molar mass of \(X=180 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) Molar mass of \(Y=50 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) Mass of solvent (approx.) \(=100\) \(\begin{aligned} K_b & =0.52 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \\ \Delta T_b & =K_b \times M=K_b\left[M_{(X)}+M_{(Y)}\right] \\ & =K_b\left[\frac{w_{(X)}}{M_{(X)}}+\frac{w_{(Y)}}{M_{(Y)}}\right] \times \frac{1000}{100} \\ & =0.52\left[\frac{9}{180}+\frac{1}{50}\right] 10 \\ & =0.52[0.05+0.02] 10 \\ & =0.52[0.07] 10=0.36 \end{aligned}\) Thus, boiling point \(=100+0.36\) \(=100.36 \text { or } 100.4\) Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
