Which of the following will have the highest boiling point?

0.1 M KBr
0.1 M NH3
0.01 M KBr
0.01 M NH3

0.1M NH3

Explanation:

The boiling point of aqueous solutions depend on the nature of intermolecular interactions present. KBr will yield an ionic solution but NH3 will yield a molecular solution having hydrogen bonds. The degree of hydrogen bonding in the aqueous solution will further increase with the concentration of the solution.

Remember that experimental data shows that hydrogen bonds are strong bonds that lead to a significant increase in the boiling point of solutions. Hence 0.1M NH3 solution will have a higher boiling point due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the solution.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
