QAIPM-2011-Ch-1856: NEET 2011 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPM-2011-Ch-1856 Solution: The freezing point depression constant for water is \(-1.86^ C\ …

The freezing point depression constant for water is −1.86∘C m−1-1.86^\circ C\ m^{-1}. If 5.00 g Na2SO4Na_2SO_4 is dissolved in 45.0 g H2OH_2O, the freezing point is changed by −3.82∘C-3.82^\circ C. Calculate the van't Hoff factor for Na2SO4Na_2SO_4.

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 2.05
  • B 2.63
  • C 3.11
  • D 0.381

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

According to depression in freezing point, _ T f = i _ K f _ m = i _ K f _ w B _ 1000 m B _ w A Given : _ T f = 3.82, K f = 1.86, w B = 5, m B = 142, w A = 45 i = _ T _ m B _ w A K f _ w B _ 1000 = 3.82 _ 142 _ 45 1.86 _ 5 _ 1000 = 2.63
