Question
It is more convenient to obtain the molecular mass of an unknown solute by measuring the freezing point depression than by measuring the boiling point elevation because
Options
A.freezing point depression is a colligative property, whereas boiling point elevation is not.
B.freezing point depressions are larger than boiling point elevations for the same
C.freezing point depressions are smaller than boiling point elevations for the same
D.freezing point depressions depends more on the amount of solute than boiling point elevation.
Solution
For any solvent, Kf > Kb and hence, ΔTf > ΔTb.
