Answer:

AlCl₃.

Explanation:

Adding solute to water causes depression of the boiling point.

The depression in freezing point (ΔTf) can be calculated using the relation:

ΔTf = i.Kf.m,

where, ΔTf is the depression in freezing point.

i is the van 't Hoff factor.

van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.

Kf is the molal depression constant of water.

m is the molality of the solution (m = 1.0 m, for all solutions).

(1) NaCl:

i for NaCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

∴ ΔTb for (NaCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2(Kf).

(2) MgCl₂:

i for MgCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

∴ ΔTb for (MgCl₂) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 3(Kf).

(3) NaCl:

i for KBr = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

∴ ΔTb for (KBr) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2(Kf).

(4) AlCl₃:

i for AlCl₃ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 4/1 = 4.

∴ ΔTb for (CoCl₃) = i.Kb.m = (4)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 4(Kf).

So, the ionic compound will lower the freezing point the most is: AlCl₃

Compare and contrast the concepts of average mass and relative mass. Which one is more accurate, and why? Why is the one you did
Brut [27]

Answer:

Relative and average atomic mass both describe properties of an element related to its different isotopes.

Explanation:However, relative atomic mass is a standardized number that's assumed to be correct under most circumstances, while average atomic mass is only true for a specific sample.
