An aqueous solution of a weak monobasic acid containing 0.1 g in 21.7g of water freezes at 272.813 K. If the value of Kf for water is 1.86 K/m, what is the molecular mass of the monobasic acid?
The correct option is
D
60 g/mole
Given that,
Weight of solutem= 0.1g
Weight of solvent =21.7g
Kffor water = 1.86 K/m
ΔTf=Freezingpointofwater−Freezingpointofsolution
=273-272.813 = 0.337K
m=1.86×0.1×10000.037×21.7=60gmol
