Answer: The molecular mass of this compound is 131 g/mol

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point:

\Delta T_f=i\times k_f\times \frac{w_2\times 1000}{M_2\times w_1}

where,

\Delta T_f = depression in freezing point  = 3.9^oC

k_f = freezing point constant  = 20.8^0C/m

m = molality

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

w_2 = mass of solute = 0.49 g

w_1 = mass of solvent (cyclohexane) = 20.00 g

M_2 = molar mass of solute = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

(3.9)^oC=1\times (20.8^oC/m)\times \frac{(0.49g)\times 1000}{M_2\times (20.00g)}

M_2=131g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of solute is 131 g/mol

Which of the following solutes will lower the freezing point of water the most? NaCl, CaCl2!or AlBr3
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
This uses the concept of freezing point depression. When faced with this issue, we use the following equation:
ΔT = i·Kf·m
which translates in english to:
Change in freezing point = vant hoff factor * molal freezing point depression constant * molality of solution
Because the freezing point depression is a colligative property, it does not depend on the identity of the molecules, just the number of them.
Now, we know that molality will be constant, and Kf will be constant, so our only unknown is "i", or the van't hoff factor.
The van't hoff factor is the number of atoms that dissociate from each individual molecule. The higher the van't hoff factor, the more depressed the freezing point will be.
NaCl will dissociate into Na+ and Cl-, so it has i = 2
CaCl2 will dissociate into Ca2+ and 2 Cl-, so it has i = 3
AlBr3 will dissociate into Al3+ and 3 Br-, so it has i = 4
Therefore, AlBr3 will lower the freezing point of water the most.
