Boiling point elevation for a strong and concentrated solution is found by Duhring's rule, which states that at the same pressure, the boiling point of a solution is a linear function of the _______________ of pure water?

Correct answer: A. Boiling point

  • A. Boiling point
  • B. Dynamic viscosity
  • C. Kinematic viscosity
  • D. Density

Explanation

Duhring's rule states that, at a fixed pressure, the boiling temperature of a solution varies approximately linearly with the boiling temperature of pure water at the same pressure. This relation is used to estimate boiling-point elevation for concentrated solutions.
