Vapor-pressure lowering is a colligative property, as are freezing-point depression and boiling-point elevation. What is a colligative property? Why is the freezing point depressed for a solution as compared to the pure solvent? Why is the boiling point elevated for a solution as compared to the pure solvent? Explain how to calculate T for a freezing-point depression problem or a boiling-point elevation problem. Of the solvents listed in Table 10-5, which would have the largest freezing-point depression for a 0.50 molal solution? Which would have the smallest boiling-point elevation for a 0.50 molal solution? A common application of freezing-point depression and boiling-point elevation experiments is to provide a means to calculate the molar mass of a nonvolatile solute. What data are needed to calculate the molar mass of a nonvolatile solute? Explain how you would manipulate these data to calculate the molar mass of the nonvolatile solute.
Two samples of sodium chloride solutions are brought to a boil on a stove. One of the solutions boils at 100.10C and the other at 100.15C. a Which of the solutions is more concentrated? b Which of the solutions would have a lower freezing point? c If you split the solution that boils at 100.1C into two portions, how would the boiling points of the samples compare? Which of the following statements do you agree with regarding the determination of your answer for part c? I. The question cannot be answered with certainty without knowing the volumes of each portion. II. Making the necessary assumption that the two samples have equal volumes, I was able to correctly answer the question. III. The volumes that the sample was split into are irrelevant when determining the correct answer.
