Answer

B. 0.0028^{\circ }C Explanation 1. Calculate moles of BaCl_2 Moles = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \frac{2.10 \, \text{g}}{208.23 \, \text{g/mol}} = 0.01008 \, \text{mol} 2. Calculate molality Molality (m) = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{kg of solvent}} = \frac{0.01008 \, \text{mol}}{5.50 \, \text{kg}} = 0.00183 \, \text{mol/kg} 3. Calculate boiling point elevation Boiling point elevation (\Delta T_b) = i \cdot K_b \cdot m = 3 \cdot 0.51 \, ^\circ C/\text{mol} \cdot 0.00183 \, \text{mol/kg} = 0.0028 \, ^\circ C

Explanation

1. Calculate moles of $BaCl_2$<br /> Moles = $\frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \frac{2.10 \, \text{g}}{208.23 \, \text{g/mol}} = 0.01008 \, \text{mol}$<br />2. Calculate molality<br /> Molality ($m$) = $\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{kg of solvent}} = \frac{0.01008 \, \text{mol}}{5.50 \, \text{kg}} = 0.00183 \, \text{mol/kg}$<br />3. Calculate boiling point elevation<br /> Boiling point elevation ($\Delta T_b$) = $i \cdot K_b \cdot m = 3 \cdot 0.51 \, ^\circ C/\text{mol} \cdot 0.00183 \, \text{mol/kg} = 0.0028 \, ^\circ C$
