Answer:
Iron gains three electrons.
We will use the expression for freezing point depression ∆Tf
∆Tf = i Kf m
Since we know that the freezing point of water is 0 degree Celsius, temperature change ∆Tf is
∆Tf = 0C - (-3°C) = 3°C
and the van't Hoff Factor i is approximately equal to 2 since one molecule of KCl in aqueous solution will produce one K+ ion and one Cl- ion:
KCl → K+ + Cl-
Therefore, the molality m of the solution can be calculated as
3 = 2 * 1.86 * m
m = 3 / (2 * 1.86)
m = 0.80 molal
Explanation:
A compound is defined as follows.
- Compounds are pure substance.
- The atoms bonded in a compound are in specific proportion.
- A compound is formed by chemical combination.
- For a compound, melting point and boiling point is defined.
A mixture is defined as follows.
- Mixtures are impure substance.
- The bonded atoms in a mixture are in any proportion.
- A mixture is formed by physical combination.
- For a mixture, melting point and boiling point is not defined.
On changing the amount of one substance will affect the formation of compound as a compound requires atoms to be bonded in a specific proportion. Whereas changing the amount of one substance will not affect the formation of mixtures as atoms can be bonded in any proportion in a mixture.
