An instrument designed to determine the molecular weight of a substance by measuring changes in the boiling point of a solvent.
From Latin 'ebullire' (to boil over) + Greek 'skopein' (to view/examine). This scientific instrument combines classical roots to describe a precise analytical tool.
An ebullioscope is like a detective tool for molecules—by seeing how much a dissolved substance raises the boiling point, scientists can figure out how heavy those invisible particles are.
