Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) is used as an antioxidant in processed foods. (It prevents fats and oils from becoming rancid.) A

solution of 2.500 g of BHT in 100.0 g of benzene had a freezing point of 4.880 oC. What is molecular mass of BHT?. Kf for benzene is 5.065 oC/m

Answer:

Molecular mass of BHT is 204,2 g/mol

Explanation:

To answer this question you need to know that Freezing-point depression (A colligative property) is the decrease of the freezing point of a solvent on the addition of a non-volatile solute. The formula is:

ΔT = Kf m

Where ΔT is the freezing point depression (5,5°C - 4,880°C =  0,62°C

Kf that is freezing point molar constant of the solvent (5,065°C/m)

And m that is molality (moles of solute/kg of solvent). Replacing:

m = 0,1224 \frac{mole Solute}{kgSolvent}

Knowing you have 100,0g of solvent ≡ 0,1000 kg:

\frac{0,1224 moles}{1 kg Solvent} *0,1000 kg =<em> 0,01224 moles of solute </em> <em>≡ BHT</em>

As grams of BHT are 2,500, molecular mass of BHT is:

\frac{2,500g}{0,01224 moles BHT} = <em>204,2 g/mol</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps

Are plant cells affected when water is scarce
boyakko [2]
<span>Water is vital to the existence of plant life. Not only do plants use it to keep their cells from drying out, but they need water to move nutrients and raw materials throughout their systems to areas where photosynthesis and seed production take place. When water stress occurs, whether caused by drought or root impairment, many invisible processes are affected.</span>
