answer 12.61
ACT 2. USING COLLIGATIVE PROPERTY TO GET THE MOLAR MASS
12.61 The molar mass of benzoic acid (C,H,COOH) determined
by measuring the freezing-point depression n benzene is twice
what we would expect for the molecular formula, C,H,O2.
Explain this apparent anomaly.
12.62 A solution of 2.50 g of a compound having the empirical
formula C,H,P in 25.0 g of benzene is observed to freeze at
4.3°C. Calculate the molar mass of the solute and its
molecular formula.
