<u>Given:</u>
Mass of solvent water = 4.50 kg
Freezing point of the solution = -11 C
Freezing point depression constant = 1.86 C/m
<u>To determine:</u>
Moles of methanol to be added
<u>Explanation:</u>
The freezing point depression ΔTf is related to the molality m through the constant kf, as follows:
ΔTf = kf*m
where ΔTf = Freezing point of pure solvent (water) - Freezing pt of solution
ΔTf = 0 C - (-11.0 C) = 11.0 C
m = molality = moles of methanol/kg of water = moles of methanol/4.50 kg
11.0 = 1.86 * moles of methanol/4.50
moles of methanol = 26.613 moles
Ans: Thus around 26.6 moles of methanol should be added to 4.50 kg of water.
Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.
So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.
In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is
As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:
density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml
The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater
Hope this helps!
Good luck
