Which would be a better choice of compound to add to the sidewalk to prevent ice, a 55 g/mol salt with an n value of 3 or a 40 g/mol compound with a n value of 1? Explain reason. The normal freezing point of acetic acid is -2.3 oC, and the Kf is 3.90. If 58.9 g of MgCl2 is dissolved in 2.1 kg of acetic acid, what would the new freezing point be?
