MHT CET2016ChemistrySolutions
Identify the compound amongst the following whose 0.1 M aqueous solution has the highest boiling point.
Options
- AGlucose
- BSodium chloride
- CCalcium chloride
- DFerric chloride
Correct answer
D. Ferric chloride
Step-by-step solution
Δ T b = k b × m × i Since they all have the same concentration, the one that will break into most parts has the highest boiling Points. Ionic compounds will ionize. A : 1 part (covalent, does not ionize) B : 2 parts 1 N a , 1 C l C : 3 parts 1 C a , 2 C l D : 4 parts 1 F e , 3 C l Hence, the correct choice is Ferric chloride.
