Question

In class, we derived the expression:
ln XA =(ΔvH/R) ((1/T)-(1/T°))
where A represents the solvent (and B would represent the solute, such that XA + XB = 1).
Using the approximations given below, derive the expression:
∆Tb = XB (RT°2/ΔvH)
where ∆Tb is the change in boiling point between the solution and the pure liquid, T − T°.
Approximations:
ln(1 − X) ≈ −X
TT° ≈ T°2
Note: this derived expression is often simplified in General Chemistry as ∆Tb = Kbm  where Kb is the boiling point elevation constant, and m is the molality.

Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction interpretation

Interpretation- 

To drive the expression which is given as ∆Tb = XB (RT°2vH) by using the equation ln XA =(ΔvH/R) ((1/T)-(1/T°)). 

 

 

Concept- 

As here already given that equation is - 

                                                         ln XA =(ΔvH/R) ((1/T)-(1/T°))

here  A represents the solvent and B would represent the solute, such that XA + XB = 1

∆Tb is the change in boiling point between the solution and the pure liquid, T − T° , so  ∆T= T - T
