AI Generated Solution

To answer the question regarding the molal elevation constants of water and benzene, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Molal Elevation Constant The molal elevation constant (Kb) is a property of a solvent that indicates how much the boiling point of the solvent will increase when a solute is dissolved in it. This is a colligative property, which means it depends on the number of solute particles in a given amount of solvent, not the identity of the solute. ### Step 2: Identify the Values for Water and Benzene From the information provided: - The molal elevation constant for water (Kb for water) is **0.52 °C kg/mol**. ...
