Answer:
Explanation: A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place.
The compounds which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.
Thus the exchange of ions take place and all the compounds are soluble so the chemical formulas are followed by the symbol (aq).
<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of solution is -0.454°C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.
The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:
To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:
Or,
where,
Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C
i = Vant hoff factor = 2
= molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m
= Given mass of solute (KCl) = 5.0 g
= Molar mass of solute (KCl) = 74.55 g/mol
= Mass of solvent (water) = 550.0 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.454°C
