Question

Calculate the freezing point of a solution of 3.46 g of a compound, X, in 160 g of benzene. When a separate sample of X was vaporised, its density was found to be 3.27 g/Lat 116°C and 773 torr. The freezing point of pure benzene is 5.45°C, and Kis 5.12°C kg/mol.

Answer 1

Calculate the freezing point of a solution of 3.46 g of a compound,X,in 160 g of benzene. When separate sample of X was vaporised, its density was found 3.27 g/L at 116 c and 773 torr. The freezing point of pure benzen is 5.45 c, and kf is 5 .12 c/m.

Step-by-step explanation:

First determine molar mass from

P*molar mass = density*R*T

Solve for molar mass. Then

moles = grams/molar mass

Solve for moles

molality = moles/kg solvent

Solve for molality

delta T = Kf*m

Solve for delta T, then convert to freezing point
