Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used to melt ice on roads during the winter. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is sometimes used for this purpose too. Let us compare the effectiveness of equal masses of these two compounds in lowering the freezing point of water, by calculating the freezing point depression of solutions containing 200. g of each salt in 1.00 kg of water. (An advantage of CaCl2 is that it acts more quickly because it is hygroscopic, that is. it absorbs moisture from the air to give a solution and begin the process. A disadvantage is that this compound is more costly.)

6-22 Answer true or false. (a) Water is a good solvent for ionic compounds because water is a polar liquid. (b) Small covalent compounds dissolve in water if they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. (c) The solubility of ionic compounds in water generally increases as temperature increases. (d) The solubility of gases in liquids generally increases as temperature increases. (e) Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids in liquids. (f) Pressure has a major effect on the solubility of gases in liquids. (g) In general, the greater the pressure of a gas over water, the greater the solubility of the gas in water. (h) Oxygen, O2, is insoluble in water.

You have read that adding a solute to a solvent can both increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. A friend of yours explains it to you like this: The solute and solvent can be like salt in water. The salt gets in the way of freezing in that it blocks the water molecules from joining together. The salt acts like a strong bond holding the water molecules together so that it is harder to boil. What do you say to your friend?
