JEE Main 2023 (Online) 8th April Morning Shift Chemistry - Solutions Question 27 English

The boiling point of the solvent is __________ $${ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$.

Answer
82

Explanation

At any temperature, the vapour pressure of the solution is lower than that of the pure solvent. Hence vapour pressure- temperature curve of solution lies below that of solvent.

The more volatile liquid evaporates fast as compared to the less volatile liquid at a low temperature because the volume increases with respect to temperature so it has a low boiling point.
