Question

64.4g Crystals of pure Na2SO4 10 H2O are dissolved in 114 g of water to obtain an aq. solution of salt.  Determine the freezing point of solution assuming that salt is completely ionized in solution Kf of water is 1.86 K kgmol-1 :-

Options

A.-7.44oC
B.-9.79oC
C.-3.26oC
D.-2.48oC

Solution

Moles of solute (n) = = 0.2 mol Na2SO4 10 H2O
∵ 1 mol Na2SO4 10H2O contains = 10 mol H2O
     ⇒   180 gH2O
∴   0.2 mol Na2SO4 10H2O contains = 180 ×  0.2 = 36 g H2O
Total mass of solvent (H2O) in solu. = 114 + 36 = 150 g
 ∴   ᐃTf  = 3 × 1.86 ×  = 7.44
