OUT OF 1M GLUCOSE SOLUTION AND 1M NaCl SOLUTION, WHICH ONE WILL HAVE HIGHER BOILING POINT AND WHY?
Answers
Answer:
NaCl
Explanation:
Because NaCl is an ionic solid and its molecular forces of attraction is very strong so its boiling point is high
while in glucose its covalent nature so its boiling point is comparatively low
Answer:
Glucose (C6 H12 O6) is a covalent compound which means its bonds are formed by sharing electrons. This implies that the bonds are weak due to the sharing of the electrons.
NaCl (common salt) is an ionic compound which means its bonds are formed by complete transfer of electrons. This implies that the bonds are strong due to the attainment of the octet arrangement by all elements in that particular compound.
Hence to energy(heat) required to break covalent bonds is comparatively lesser than the energy required to break ionic bonds. Therefore ionic compounds generally have higher boiling and melting points.
Hence 1m of NaCl solution will have a higher boiling point than 1m of Glucose
