Question

Part 1: Urea is a common fertilizer with the formula CO(NH2)2 that is sometimes used as a chemical de-icer for icy road surfaces in the winter months. Adding a solute to a solvent causes the freezing point to be lowered and allows the solvent to remain liquid at lower temperatures.
The value of Kf for water is 1.86°C/m, and its normal freezing point is 0.00°C. Urea is a nonvolatile nonelectrolyte solute.
What molality of urea is required to lower the freezing point of ice water by 2.63°C?   

.................... m

 

Using your answer from Part 1, calculate the mass of urea that must be added to 187 mL of water (density 1.00 g/mL) to lower the freezing point by 2.63°C.
mass of urea =  ............... g
