Solution

To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for boiling point elevation, which is ΔTb = i * Kb * m, where:

  • ΔTb is the change in boiling point
  • i is the van 't Hoff factor (number of particles the solute splits into in solution)
  • Kb is the boiling point elevation constant
  • m is the molality of the solution

Given in the problem, we have:

  • i = 3 (for BaCl2, because it dissociates into 3 ions in solution: Ba2+ and 2Cl-)
  • Kb = 0.51°C/mol
  • molar mass of BaCl2 = 208.23 g/mol

First, we need to calculate the molality (m) of the solution. Molality is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

  1. Calculate the number of moles of BaCl2:

    Number of moles = mass of solute / molar mass Number of moles = 1.50 g / 208.23 g/mol = 0.0072 mol

  2. Calculate the molality:

    Molality (m) = number of moles / mass of solvent in kg Molality (m) = 0.0072 mol / 1.50 kg = 0.0048 mol/kg

Now we can substitute these values into the formula for boiling point elevation:

ΔTb = i * Kb * m ΔTb = 3 * 0.51°C/mol * 0.0048 mol/kg = 0.0073°C

So, the predicted change in the boiling point of water when 1.50 g of barium chloride is dissolved in 1.50 kg of water is 0.0073°C. The correct answer is C.0.0073°C.
