Expert Solution
Step 1

Given mass of chlorophyll = 13.92 g 

Molar mass of chlorophyll = 893.5 g/mol 

Mass of ethanol = 186.9 g = 0.1869 Kg 

(1 kg = 1000g )

Freezing point of ethanol (solvent) = -117.30 °C 

The solute is chlorophyll and the solvent is ethanol . 

Formula : 

Molality = moles of solute ÷ mass of solvent (in kg) 

Freezing point of solution = freezing point of ethanol - delta T 

where delta T is freezing point depression  

And delta T is determined by : 

delta T = i × Kf × m 

i = vant hoff factor (for chlorophyll it's value is one as it's  non volatile) 

Kf  = freezing point depression constant of ethanol 

m = Molality of solution
