Interpretation:
To make sugar candy, a concentrated sucrose solution is boiled until the temperature reaches 272
Concept Information:
Molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute in one kilogram (kg) of solvent. It is denoted by m.
Mole fraction of a component is defined as the number of moles of a solute divided by the total number of moles present in the solution. The mole fraction of all the components present in the solution, when added, makes it unity. It is given by equation:
The amount by which the boiling point is raised is called the boiling point elevation, ∆Tb. Its relationship with molality is given as ∆Tb = Kbm, where Kb is molal boiling point elevation constant.

She dissolves 1.22 0.01 g of the solid in 15.60 0.01 g benzene. The freezing point is lowered by 1.32 0.04C. a. What is the molar mass of the substance? Assuming that the percent uncertainty in the calculated molar mass is the same as the percent uncertainty in the temperature change, calculate the uncertainty in the molar mass. b.
