Camphor is often used in molecular mass determination because

A

it is solvent for organic substances

B

it is readily available

C

it has a very high cryoscopic constant

D

it is volatile

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Camphor has very large `K_(f)` (cryoscopic constant).
As such, `Delta T_(f)` for camphor is very large and easyto find accurately.
