Isopropyl Alcohol Has a Boiling Point of 82 $\Delta$ T_b = IK_bm
A) No, Boiling Point Elevation Only Pertains

question 78

Multiple Choice

Isopropyl alcohol has a boiling point of 82.3°C. Solutions of isopropyl alcohol in water have normal boiling points less than 100°C. Is this observation consistent with the following equation? Explain.
$\Delta$ T_b = iK_bm

• A) No, boiling point elevation only pertains to ionic solutes.
• B) No, boiling point elevation only pertains to nonvolatile solutes.
• C) Yes, boiling point depression occurs for all solutions.
• D) Yes, the boiling point depression constant for isopropyl alcohol is large.
• E) No, isopropyl alcohol can hydrogen bond with water.
