Question
Calculate the freezing point (in degrees C) of a solution made by dissolving 3.53 g of naphthalene {C10H8} in 83 g of CCl4. The Kfp of the solvent is 29.8 K/m and the normal freezing point is -23 degrees C. Enter your answer to 2 decimal places.

Instead of using NaCl to melt the ice on your sidewalk you decide to use CaCl2. If you add 35.0 g of CaCl2 to 150. g of water, what is the freezing point of the solution? (Assume i = 2.7 for CaCl2.)

You have read that adding a solute to a solvent can both increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. A friend of yours explains it to you like this: The solute and solvent can be like salt in water. The salt gets in the way of freezing in that it blocks the water molecules from joining together. The salt acts like a strong bond holding the water molecules together so that it is harder to boil. What do you say to your friend?

A 12-oz (355-mL) Pepsi contains 38.9 mg caffeine (molar mass = 194.2 g/mol). Assume that the Pepsi, mainly water, has a density of 1.01 g/mL. For such a Pepsi, calculate: (a) its caffeine concentration in ppm; (b) its molarity of caffeine; and (c) the molality of caffeine.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used to melt ice on roads during the winter. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is sometimes used for this purpose too. Let us compare the effectiveness of equal masses of these two compounds in lowering the freezing point of water, by calculating the freezing point depression of solutions containing 200. g of each salt in 1.00 kg of water. (An advantage of CaCl2 is that it acts more quickly because it is hygroscopic, that is. it absorbs moisture from the air to give a solution and begin the process. A disadvantage is that this compound is more costly.)

You have two aqueous solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane. One contains 5.85 g of NaCl dissolved in 100. mL of solution, and the other contains 8.88 g of KNO3 dissolved in 100. mL of solution. In which direction will solvent flow: from the NaCl solution to the KNO3 solution, or from KNO3 to NaCl? Explain briefly.

Assume that you have identical volumes of two liquids; the first is 0.3 M glucose solution and the second is 0.1 M glucose solution. Based on the diagrams in Problem 8-85, where red is the 0.3 M glucose and blue is the 0.1 M glucose, which one of the diagrams best represents the two liquids after they have stood uncovered for a few days and some evaporation of liquid has occurred?
