SOLUTIONS-3

(1) Sea water is found to contain 5.85% NaCl and 9.50% MgCl2 by weight of solution. Calculate its normal boiling point assuming 80% ionisation for NaCl and 50% ionisation of MgCl2[Kb(H2O) = 0.51kgmol-1K].

in this question we have 0.1 mol of NaCl and 0.1 mol of MgCl2 in around 85g water
on 80% dissociation 1 mol of NaCl will produce 1.8 moles
and on 50% dissociation 1 mol of MgCl2 will produce 2 moles
so we have 0.38 moles in 85g water
molality = 4.5
∂T = 4.5 * 0.51
=2.29
so sea water will boil at 102.29 C
