Chapter 6.8, Problem 6.10QC

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The objective is to find the freezing point of the solution obtained by adding 215 g of methanol, ${\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}\text{OH}$ to 1000. g water.

Concept Introduction:

One mole of any particle dissolved in 1000. g of water lowers the freezing point of water by 1.86?. Thus, the freezing point of resulting solution is given by:

$\Delta {\text{T}}_t=\frac{-1.86°\text{C}}{\text{mol}}\times \text{ mol of particles}$.
