An experiment is to be performed to calculate the formula mass of a solute (KNO3) through the boiling-point elevation.
1. Determine the required formula mass of the solute? Create appropriate data that can be used in part (c).
2. Explain what procedures are needed to obtain these data?
3. List the calculations necessary to determine the formula mass; use your data to determine the formula mass.
4. Estimate the % error in your determination of the formula mass of KNO3.
