The freezing point of a liquid will change when a solute is added. Explain how the addition of salt impacts the boiling point of water. Calculate the freezing point change for a given concentration. Given that water’s freezing point is 0.00ºC and the freezing point depression constant (Kf) is 1.86 ºC・kg/mol, calculate the freezing point depression for a 2.75 molal solution (moles/kg) of NaCl in water. Assume ideal behavior of the ions.   Please use the correct number of significant figures! Thank you!
