Question

Why does an aqueous solution of 0.10 mol/kg of NaCl have a higher boiling point than a 0.10 mol/kg aqueous C6H12O6?
bobpursley
The boiling point elevation depends on the number of particles in solution. NaCl in water divides into two particles, sugar does not. Thus, the NaCl will have twice the bp elevation as does the same concentration of sugar.
