Nonelectrolytes
The third period chemistry
class under the direction of A.
B. Parker, performed an experi
ment to determine the effect
electrolytes and nonelectrolytes
have on the boiling point and
freezing point of a solution.
Students learned that an elec
trolyte is a substance whose wa
ter solution conducts an elec
tric current. They discovered
that one mole of a nonelectro
lyte dissolved in 1000 grams of
water lowers the freezing point
of the water 1.86. This is known
as the molal freezing point of
water. One mole of an electro
lyte dissolved in 1000 grams of
water raises the boiling point of
water 0.52c. This is known as
the molal boiling point eleva
tion of water.
