Answer : The molar mass of the solute would be low.

Explanation :

Formula used for depression in freezing point is:  

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m\\\\T^o-T_s=i\times K_f\times\frac{w_b}{M_b}\times w_a}

where,

\Delta T_f = change in freezing point

\Delta T_s = freezing point of solution

\Delta T^o = freezing point of water

i = Van't Hoff factor

K_f = freezing point constant

m = molality

w_b = mass of solute

w_a = mass of solvent

M_b = molar mass of solute

From the formula we conclude that, when the freezing point of the solution read incorrectly that is freezing point of the solution is lower than the true freezing point then this means that change in freezing point would be high and the molar mass of the solute would be low.

Hence, the molar mass of the solute would be low.

How did atomic theory develop and change?
Agata [3.3K]
The atomic theory started with Democritus, who stated that all space was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, though Aristotles refuted that statement by saying that matter didn’t exist, he believed in the four elements: air, fire, water, and earth. Then came Dalton, who revived Democritus’s ideas and proposed the law of multiple proportions, he revived the idea that all space was made of atoms. Soon after, J.J Thompson discovered the electron by using cathode rays. Max Planck developed the quantum theory by stating that electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted in quantized form (later called quanta). Einstein furthered this idea with studies of light. Robert Millikan eventually measured the charge of a single electron. Ernest Rutherford used a gold foil experiment and discovered the nuclei, considering his alpha particles were deflected by some object. Niels Bohr made the atomic model with electrons spinning around an atom’s nucleus, Erwin Schrodinger describes how electrons have wave like properties. James Chadwick then discovers the neutron!
