Solution A is obtained by dissolving 1 g of urea in 100 g of water and solution B is obtained by dissolving 1 g of glucose in 100 g of water. Which solution will have a higher boiling point and why?
Solution
Elevation of boiling point depends on the number of solute particles.
Moles of urea mol; moles of glucose mol.
For the same mass of water, solution A (urea) has the larger molality, hence the larger and the higher boiling point.
