Solutions

Solutions can be considered as homogeneous mixtures which contain two or more than two chemical substances. The chemical substance which is the greater part is defined as solvent. And the chemical substance that is dissolved in a solvent is referred to as solute. Solution chemistry plays an important role in chemistry since it supports many commercial applications of solutions.

Suppose a group of students tell you that they added solid sodium chloride NaCls to 35 mL of deionized water and they did not record how many grams of NaCl they added but they got a freezing point depression of 1.25°C. Calculate how many grams of NaCl the students added. The pure freezing point of water is 0.00°C and the freezing point depression constant (K) of water is 1.858 °C/m. Remember that NaCl is a solid salt and an ionic compound therefore it contributes a negligible amount to the overall additive volume and keep track of its van't Hoff factor. The density of water at 20°C is 0.9982 g/mL.
