Chapter 7, Problem 7.77E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ${\Delta }_{\text{fus}}H$ of cyclohexane is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The $K_{\text{f}}$, the freezing point depression constant, also known as cryoscopic constant is given by the formula given below.

$K_{\text{f}}=\frac{M_{\text{solvent}}R{T}_{\text{MP}}^{\text{2}}}{1000{\Delta }_{\text{fus}}H}$

The above equation relates ${\Delta }_{\text{fus}}H$ with the $K_{\text{f}}$.
