If \(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}}\) denote molal elevation constant of water, then boiling point of an aqueous solution containing \(36 \mathrm{~g}\) glucose (molar mass \(=180\) ) per \(\mathrm{dm}^3\) is:

  1. A MF
  2. B \(\mathrm{MCl}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{MBr}\)
  4. D MI
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) MI

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Ionic character of metal halides decreases in the order \(\mathrm{MF}>\mathrm{MCl}>\mathrm{MBr}>\mathrm{MI}\), where, \(\mathrm{M}\) is a monovalent metal. Smaller the size of anion, greater is the ionic character (Fajan's rule). Therefore, MI has the lowest ionic character.
