Q. Identify the compound amongst the following of which $0.1 \,M$ aqueous solution has highest boiling point.

MHT CETMHT CET 2016

Solution:

As all the compounds have same concentration, i.e. $0.1 M$. Thus, the compound that will break into the most parts has highest boiling point.

Glucose (1 part, covalent; does not ionise)

Sodium chloride (1 Na, $1 Cl$; ionises)

Calcium chloride $(1 Ca , 2 Cl ;$ ionises)

Ferric chloride (1Fe, $3Cl;$ ionises)
