Concept Introduction:
By using the Cryoscopy method, the molar mass of solute can be calculated as follows:
Step-1: The observed freezing point depression,
Step-2: The amount of solute (in moles) in the sample is calculated by multiplying the molality by the mass of solvent (in kilograms).
Step-3: The molar mass of the solute is calculated by dividing the given mass of solute (in grams) by the calculated amount in moles.

- Simple acids such as formic acid, HCOOH, and acetic acid, CH3COOH, are very soluble in water; however, fatty acids such as stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16COOH, and palmitic acid, CH3(CH2)14COOH, are water-insoluble. Based on what you know about the solubility of alcohols, explain the solubility of these organic acids.arrow_forwardFor each of the following pairs of solutions, select the solution for which solute solubility is greatest. a.
