When a certain amount of glucose is dissolved in water, the boiling point of the resulting solution increases. What will happen if magnesium sulfate is used instead of glucose to make a solution of twice the molality? the change in boiling point increases by a factor of 8 the change in boiling point will increase by a factor of 4 no effect since magnesium sulfate is insoluble in water the change in boiling point will increase by a factor of 2
