Answer:
-30.02 u00baC
Explanation:
Assuming the antifreeze to be ethylene glycol (Cu2082Hu2086Ou2082) which is popular antifreeze.
Molar mass of ethylene glycol (Cu2082Hu2086Ou2082) = 62g/mol
Step 1: calculate the freezing point depression of the solution
u0394T = -Kf*M
where,
u0394T= depression in the freezing point.
M = the molarity of the solution (mol solute / Kg solvent)
Kf = molar freezing point constant of water = 1.86u00b0C/m
To determine depression in the freezing point (u0394T), first we need to calculate;
Step 2: calculate the molarity of the solute (ethylene glycol)
Molar mass ethylene glycol = 62 g/mol
molarity of ethylene glycol in mol = 50 g / 62g/mol = 0.807 mol
Step 3: calculate mass of solvent in kg
There is 1kg of ethylene glycol which is present in 1kg of water
mass of solvent (water) in kg= 50 g/ 1000 g/ Kg = 0.050 Kg
Step 4: calculate the molarity of the solution (M)
M = 0.807 mol / 0.050 Kg = 16.14 m
Step 5: calculate the freezing point depression of the solution (u0394T)
u0394T = – Kf*M = -1.86 u00baC/m x 16.14 m
= -30.02 u00baC
Ethylene glycol is termed as the primary ingredients in antifreeze.
The ethylene glycol molecular formula is Cu2082Hu2086Ou2082.
Molar mass of Cu2082Hu2086Ou2082 is = (2×12) +(6×1) + (216) = 62g/mol
Now that antifreeze by mass is 50%, then there is 1kg of ethylene glycol which is present in 1kg of water.
u0394Tf = Kfxm
u0394Tf = depression in the freezing point.
= freezing point of water freezing point of the solution
= Ou00b0c – Tf
= -Tf
Kf = depression in freezing constant of water = 1.86u00b0C/m
M is the molarity of the solution.
=(mass/molar mass) mass of solvent in kg
=1000g/62 (g/mol) /1kg
=16.13m
If we plug the value we get
-Tf = 1.86x 16.13 = 30
Tf = -30u00b0c
