Question

What is the freezing point of a solution made from 785.5 grams of benzene to which 60.9 grams of the nonelectrolyte cycloheptene (C7H12) has been added?

 (Report freezing temperature to the hundredths place - two decimal places)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given,

Mass of non electrolyte cyclohetene solute = 60.9 g

Mass of benzene solvent = 785.5 g = 0.7855 Kg

Freezing point of a solution (Tf(solution)) = ?

Note:

Molar mass of cyclohetene (C7H12) = (7×12.01 +12×1.01) g/mol = 96.19 g/mol

Freezing point of pure benzene (Tf°(benzene)) = 5.5 °C

Freezing point depression constant (Kf) for benzene = 5.12 °C/m

van't Hoff factor (i) for cyclohetene (C7H12) = 1 (nonelectrolyte)
