A 1.00-m solution of acetic acid, CH3COOH, in benzene has a freezing point of 2.96°C. Use the data in the Table to calculate the value of i and suggest an explanation for the unusual result. (Hint: If i is less than 1.0, each formula unit that dissolves yields less than one solute particle, an outcome suggesting aggregation of solute particles.)

Consider the following two white solids below and their physical properties based on information gathered from the Merck Index: Camphor: melting point=179C; boiling point = 209C; sublimes (under vacuum); the solubility of camphor at 25C is listed as follows: to dissolve 1g of camphor: 800mL of ethanol; 1mL of ether. (Note: ethanol is miscible with water and with ether; ether is mot miscible with water). Cinnamic acid: melting point= 134C; heating above 146C causes the molecule to chemically change; the solubility of cinnamic acid at 25C is listed as follows: to dissolve 1g of cinnamic acid: 2,000mL of water; 6mLof ethanol; fully soluble in ether. based on the information above, would either of the following two methods be suitable to seperate camphor from cinnamic acid? explain your answer. a. Sublimination b. Distillation c. Treating a 2g mixture with 30mL of ethanol to selectively dissolve camphor and leaving cinamic acid behind.
