Question
Define the following terms : Molal elevation constant (Kb)
Solution 1
Molal elevation constant (Kb):
When 1 molal solution is prepared, the elevation in boiling point is called as molal boiling point elevation constant.
Solution 2
Molal elevation constant (Kb) is defined as the elevation in boiling point of a solution when one mole of a non volatile solute is dissolved in one kilogram of a volatile solvent.
