An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of glucose on the freezing point of water. Experimental data showed that the freezing point depression of water in solution was –2.6°C when 1.0 g of glucose was dissolved in 10g of solvent. Calculate the expected freezing point for such solution and compare the expected freezing point to the value found experimentally. Give a plausible explanation for any discrepancies. (M.W. of glucose= 180.16g/mol; i=1). Show all your work.
