What is the freezing point (in degrees Celcius) of 3.75 kg of water if it contains 189.9 g of C a B r 2?

The freezing point of the solution is -1.4°C

Explanation:

Freezing point decreases by the addition of a solute to the original solvent, freezing point depression formula is:

ΔT = kf×m×i

Where Kf is freezing point depression constant of the solvent (1.86°C/m), m is molality of the solution (Moles CaBr₂ -solute- / kg water -solvent) and i is Van't Hoff factor.

Molality of the solution is:

-moles CaBr₂ (Molar mass:

189.9g ₓ (1mol / 199.89g) = 0.95 moles

Molality is:

0.95 moles CaBr₂ / 3.75kg water = 0.253m

Van't hoff factor represents how many moles of solute are produced after the dissolution of 1 mole of solid solute, for CaBr₂:

CaBr₂(s) → Ca²⁺ + 2Br⁻

3 moles of ions are formed from 1 mole of solid solute, Van't Hoff factor is 3.

Replacing:

ΔT = kf×m×i

ΔT = 1.86°C/m×0.253m×3

ΔT = 1.4°C

The freezing point of water decreases in 1.4°C. As freezing point of water is 0°C,

yes

explanation:

search chemistry final b exam in google and a site called quizlet will pop up

i would say b

explanation:

but i think i would need more information than that
