Answer to Question #310755 in General Chemistry for Janelle S

Question

A solution containing 4.50 g of a non-electrolyte (i=1) dissolved in 125 g of water freezes at -0.372ºC. Calculate the molar mass of the solute.

Step 1: First compute the molality of the freezing point equation.

Step 2. Then, from the definition of molality, compute the number of moles solute, n(solute), in the sample.

Step 3. Solve for the molar mass
