Interpretation: The number of moles of
Concept Introduction: The freezing point is directly proportional to the molality of the solution.
Or,
Here,
The molality of solution can be calculated as follows:
Here, n is number of moles of solute and M is mass of solvent in kg.
(b)
Interpretation: The number of moles of

- The following diagrams show varying amounts of the same solute (the red spheres) in varying amounts of solution. a. In which of the diagrams is the solution concentration the largest? b. In which two of the diagrams are the solution concentrations the same?arrow_forwardWhat do you expect to happen to a concentration of dissolved gas in a solution as the solution is heated?arrow_forwardWhen two beakers containing different concentrations of a solute in water are placed in a closed cabinet for a time, one beaker gains solvent and the other loses it, so that the concentrations of solute in the two beakers become equal. Explain what is happening.arrow_forward
- How are the boiling point and freezing point of water affected by the addition of solute?arrow_forwardThe freezing point of 0.109 m aqueous formic acid is 0.210C. Formic acid, HCHO2, is partially dissociated according to the equation HCHO2(aq)H+(aq)+CHO2(aq) Calculate the percentage of HCHO2 molecules that are dissociated, assuming the equation for the freezing-point depression holds for the total concentration of molecules and ions in the solution.arrow_forward
