Question

A student determines the molar mass of methanol, CH3OH by the same method used in this experiment.  She found that the equilibrium temperature of ice and pure water was 0.4 ˚C.  When she added 10.0 g of her sample (CH3OH), it fell to -5.4˚C.  The mass of the solution was 101.8 g.

  • What was the freezing point depression?
  • What was the molality of CH3OH?
  • How many moles of CH3OH are in the solution?
  • Find the molar mass of CH3OH from the experimental data.  How does it compare the value calculated from the periodic table?
