The freezing point depression is a colligative property which means that it is proportional to the number of particles dissolved.

The number of particles dissolved depends on the dissociation constant of the solutes, when theyt are ionic substances.

If you have equal concentrations of two solutions on of which is of a ionic compound and the other not, then the ionic soluton will contain more particles (ions) and so its freezing point will decrease more (will be lower at end).   

In this way you can compare the freezing points of solutions of KCl, Ch3OH, Ba(OH)2, and CH3COOH, which have the same concentration.

As I explained the solution that produces more ions will exhibit the greates depression of the freezing point, leading to the lowest freezing point.

In this case, Ba(OH)2 will produce 3 iones, while KCl will produce 2, CH3OH will not dissociate into ions, and CH3COOH will have a low dissociation constant.

Answer: Then, you can predict that Ba(OH)2 solution has the lowest freezing point.

We discussed the different types of intermolecular forces in this lesson. Which type would you expect to find in CO2?
g100num [7]

Answer:

Dispersion forces.

Explanation:

CO2 contains dispersion forces, and covalent bonds. It is a linear molecule, and the bond angle of O-C-O is 180 degree. O is more electronegative than C, the C-O contains polar bond with the having negative end pointing towards the O.

CO contains two C-O bonds. They cancel each other out because of the dipoles point in opposite directions. Although, CO2 contains polar bonds, it is known as a nonpolar molecule. So, the only intramolecular forces which CO2 having are London dispersion forces.
