Answer :
A sample of an organic compound (a nonelectrolyte) weighing 1.35 g lowered the freezing point of 10.0 g of benzene by 3.66 °c. assuming ideal solution behavior molar mass of the compound is 189 g mol⁻¹
Here given data is a sample of an organic compound which is nonelectrolyte and weighing of this compound is 1.35 g lowered the freezing point 0.0 g of benzene by 3.66 °c then we have to find molar mass of the compound=?
So here from the given data the freezing point lowering (ΔTf) is known to be 3.66 °C. also, Kf for benzene can be obtained 11.2 means (Kf = 5.12 °C/m). therefore, the equation ΔTf = Kfm can be used to find the molality of the solution. the definition of molality is moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. by using the mass of the solvent, benzene, the number of moles of solute may be found. using this information with the grams of solute, the molar mass of the organic solute may be found
ΔTf = Kfm
3.66 °C = (5.12 °C/m) × m
M=mole of solute/kg solvent=0.715
Molality=0.715 mol solute/kg solvent=0.715 m
0.715 m=x/0.010 kg benzene
Xmol=0.715 × 0.010=7.15×10⁻³mol solute
Mol=g/molar mass
7.15×10⁻³mol solute=1.350g/molar mass
Molar mass= 189 g mol⁻¹
