The freezing point depression is calculated through the equation,
ΔT = (kf) x m
where ΔT is the difference in temperature, kf is the freezing point depression constant (1.86°C/m), and m is the molality. Substituting the known values,
5.88 = (1.86)(m)
m is equal to 3.16m
Recall that molality is calculated through the equation,
molality = number of mols / kg of solvent
number of mols = (3.16)(1.25) = 3.95 moles
Then, we multiply the calculated amount in moles with the molar mass of ethylene glycol and the answer would be 244.9 g.

Answer:
Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]
Explanation:
According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:
- An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
- A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.
When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.
CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:
Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]
