1. Calculate the mass of compound (molar mass = 256 g mol-1) to be dissolved in 75 g of benzene to
lower its freezing point by 0.48 K (Kf = 5.12 K kg mol-1)
2. 100 mg of a protein is dissolved in just enough water to make 10.0 mL of solution. If this solution
has an osmotic pressure of 13.3 mm Hg at 25°C, what is the molar mass of the protein?
(R = 0.0821 L atm mol-1 K-1 and 760 mm Hg = 1 atm.)
3. Calculate the freezing point depression expected for 0.0711 m aqueous solution of Na2S04. If this
solution actually freezes at – 0.320°C, what would be the value of Van’t Hoff factor? (Kf for water is
1.86°C mol-1)
4. A solution prepared by dissolving 1.25 g of oil of winter green (methyl salicylate) in 99.0 g of
benzene has a boiling point of 80.31°C. Determine the molar mass of this compound. (B.P. of pure
benzene = 80.10°C and Kb for benzene = 2.53°C kg mol-1)
5. A solution of glycerol (C3H8O3; molar mass = 92 g mol-1) in water was prepared by dissolving some
glycerol in 500 g of water. This solution has a boiling point of 100.42 °C. What mass of glycerol was
dissolved to make this solution? Kb for water = 0.512 K kg mol-1.
6. What mass of NaCl (molar mass = 58.5 g mol-1) must be dissolved in 65 g of water to lower the
freezing point by 7.5°C? The freezing point depression constant, Kf, for water is 1.86 K kg mol-1.
Assume van’t Hoff factor for NaCl is 1.87.
7. What mass of ethylene glycol (molar mass = 62.0 g mol-1) must be added to 5.50 kg of water to
lower the freezing point of water from 0° C to -10.0° C? (K, for water = 1.86 K kg mol-1)?
8. 15 g of an unknown molecular substance was dissolved in 450 g of water. The resulting solution
freezes at -0.34° C. What is the molar mass of the substance?
(Kf for water = 1.86 K kg mol-1).
