The correct Answer is:
To find the molecular weight of the non-volatile substance, we can use the formula for boiling point elevation: \[ M_2 = \frac{K_b \cdot W_2}{\Delta T_b \cdot W_1} \] Where: - \( M_2 \) = molecular weight of the solute (substance) - \( K_b \) = molal boiling point constant of the solvent (ether) - \( W_2 \) = mass of the solute (non-volatile substance) - \( \Delta T_b \) = elevation in boiling point - \( W_1 \) = mass of the solvent (ether) ### Step 1: Identify the given values - \( K_b = 2.0 \, °C \, kg/mol \) - \( W_2 = 10.6 \, g = 0.0106 \, kg \) (convert grams to kilograms) - \( \Delta T_b = 0.266 \, °C \) - \( W_1 = 750 \, g = 0.750 \, kg \) (convert grams to kilograms) ### Step 2: Substitute the values into the formula \[ M_2 = \frac{2.0 \, °C \, kg/mol \cdot 0.0106 \, kg}{0.266 \, °C \cdot 0.750 \, kg} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the numerator \[ \text{Numerator} = 2.0 \cdot 0.0106 = 0.0212 \, °C \, kg \] ### Step 4: Calculate the denominator \[ \text{Denominator} = 0.266 \cdot 0.750 = 0.1995 \, °C \, kg \] ### Step 5: Divide the numerator by the denominator \[ M_2 = \frac{0.0212}{0.1995} \approx 0.106 \, kg/mol \] ### Step 6: Convert to grams per mole \[ M_2 = 0.106 \, kg/mol \times 1000 \, g/kg = 106 \, g/mol \] ### Step 7: Round to the nearest whole number The molecular weight of the substance is approximately **106 g/mol**. ### Final Answer **106** ---
