Boiling point of a solution formed when 15.2 grams of CaCl2 dissolves in 57.0 g of water. kB= 0.512 c/m.

100.133 degree celsius is the boiling point of the solution formed when 15.2 grams of CaCl2 dissolves in 57.0 g of water.

Explanation:

Balanced eaquation for the reaction

CaCl2 + 2H20 ⇒ Ca(OH)2 + HCl

given:

mass of CaCl2 = 15.2 grams

mass of the solution = 57 grams

Kb (molal elevation constant) = 0.512 c/m

i = vont hoff factor is 1 as 1 mole of the substance is given as product.

Molality is calculated as:

molality =

              =

               = 0.26 M

Boiling point is calculated as:

ΔT = i x Kb x M

     = 1 x 0.512 x 0.26

      = 0.133 degrees

The boiling point of the solution will be:

100 degrees + 0.133 degrees (100 degrees is the boiling point of water)

= 100.133 degree celcius is the boiling point of mixture formed.

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.
