Question

Which solution has the lower freezing point? 10 g of methanol (CH3OH) in 100g g of water (or) 20 g of ethanol (C2H5OH) in 200 g of water.

Numerical

Solution

∆Tf = Kf i.e

∆Tf α m

`"m"_("CH"_3-"OH") = (10/32)/0.1`

= 3.125 m

`"m"_("CH"_3-"OH") = (20/46)/0.2`

= 2.174 m

∴ Depression in freezing point is more in methanol solution and it will have lower freezing point.
