The result is that in dilute ideal solutions, the extent of boiling-point elevation is directly proportional to the molal concentration (amount of substance per mass) of the solution according to the equation: [2] ΔT b = K b · b c. where the boiling point elevation, is defined as T b (solution) − T b (pure solvent).
By assuming a form of Coulomb's law in which the Coulomb constant k e is taken as unity, Maxwell then determined that the dimensions of an electrostatic unit of charge were Q = T −1 L 3/2 M 1/2, [15] which, after substituting his M = T −2 L 3 equation for mass, results in charge having the same dimensions as mass, viz. Q = T −2 L 3.
