ebullioscopic constant

Question

The ebullioscopic constant depends on:

RankGuru · Accepted Answer

The **Ebullioscopic Constant ($K_b$)** is defined by the formula:
$$K_b = \frac{R \cdot M \cdot (T^0_b)^2}{1000 \cdot \Delta H_{vap}}$$
- **Where**:
- $M$ is the molar mass of the **solvent**.
- $T^0_b$ is the boiling point of the **pure solvent**.
- $\Delta H_{vap}$ is the latent heat of vaporization of the **solvent**.
- All these terms are physical properties of the solvent. Therefore, $K_b$ is a characteristic of the **solvent** and does not depend on the nature of the solute dissolved in it.
