Solution a is a 1.0 m solution with a nonionic solute and water as the solvent. solution b is a 1.0 m solution with the same nonionic solute and ethanol as the solvent. which solution has the greatest increase in its boiling point (relative to the pure solvent)?

solution b

Explanation: Formula used for Elevation in boiling point for non ionic solutes,

where,

= change in boiling point

= boiling point constant

m = molality

As the molality is same for solution a and b, the change in boiling point depends on the value of boiling point constants of water and ethanol.

and

Thus solution b with higher value of as solvent has the greatest increase in its boiling point (relative to the pure solvent)
