Calculate the molar mass of a compound from the following information. You find that the freezing point of benzene is 5.5 degree
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The molar mass (Mm) of the compound is 127.39 g/mole

Explanation:

ΔT = Kf. molality

ΔT = change in temperature = Tfinal - Tinitial = 2.8 - 5.5

Kf = freezing point depression constant = - 4.3 C/m (always negative because temperature is decreasing)

molality = moles of solute/Kg of solvent = mole (n)/(20 x 10^-3 Kg of benzene)

(2.8 - 5.5) = (-4.3) x molality

molality = 0.6279 mole/kg

0.6279 = mole of compound/(20 x 10^-3)

mole of compound = 0.01256 mole

mole (n) = mass (m) divided by Molar mass (Mm)

Molar mass = mass of compound / mole of compound

m/n = 1.6/0.01256 = 127.39 g/mole
