Boiling Point Elevation (ΔTb)

1.02°C

New Solution Boiling Point

101.02 °C

Colligative Elevation Verified: Non-volatile solute particles suppress vapor pressure, requiring higher kinetic thermal energy to boil.

Pure Solvent vs Solution Boiling Point

Pure Solvent BP
100 °C(50%)
Solution BP
101.02 °C(50%)

Standard solution chemistry tool for colligative thermodynamic properties.

Calculation Methodology

Ebullioscopic Equation: ΔTb = i * Kb * m. Where i is the van 't Hoff dissociation factor, Kb is the ebullioscopic constant of the solvent (°C kg/mol - water = 0.512 °C kg/mol), and m is molality (mol solute / kg solvent). Solution Boiling Point: Tb = Tb° + ΔTb.

Frequently Asked Questions

Because solute particles dilute solvent molecules at the liquid surface, lowering vapor pressure. The solution must reach a higher temperature before its vapor pressure matches external atmospheric pressure.
