The freezing point depression constant (Kf) of benzene is 5.12 K kg mol-1. The freezing point depression for the solution of molality 0.078 m containing a non-electrolyte solute in benzene is rounded off upto two decimal places :
- 0.80 K
- 0.40 K
- 0.60 K
- 0.20 K
Answer
(2) 0.40 K
Solution
For a non-electrolyte solute, i = 1.
Tf = Kf m
Tf = 5.12 0.078
= 0.39936 K
Tf 0.40 K
Answer: (2)
