Asolution of 1.50g of solute dissolved in 25.0 ml of h2o at 25c has a boiling point of 100.95c. what is the molar mass of the solute if it is a nonvolatile non electrolyte and the solution behaves ideally. (d of h2o at 25c=0.997g/ml)?

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.

the answer is minerals.
