1. Define molality (m) and molarity (M) by writing an equation for each.
2. What is the freezing point of a solution of 13.0 g of NaCl in 225 g of water? The
molal freezing point constant for water is 1.86 Ckg / mol .
Remember: Equation for a molecule that dissociates: ΔT = iKfm
Where ΔT = Tpure – Tsolution (Tpure of solvent)
i = # ions in solution (if the solute does not dissociate i=1)
Kf = Freezing point depression constant (C/m)
m = concentration in molality (molesolute/kgsolvent)
