The Van’t Hoff factor of
Concept introduction:
The properties of a solution that depends on the number of solute particles present in solution but do not depend on the nature of solute particles are called as colligative properties.
The four colligative properties of solution are vapor-pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure.
The word, colligative, means binding of particles together.
The osmotic pressure of a solution is given by the expression as follows:
Here,
The conversion of temperature from degree Celsius

- A 1.00 mol/kg aqueous sulfuric acid solution, H2SO4,freezes at 4.04 C. Calculate i, the vant Hoff factor,for sulfuric acid in this solution.arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of sodium bromide freezes at 1.61 C. What is the total molality of solute particles? How many grams of sodium bromide are present in 1 kg of water? (Assume an ideal value for the vant Hoff factor.)arrow_forwardCalculate the freezing point of 525 g of water that contains 25.0 g of NaCl. Assume i, the vant Hoff factor, is 1.85 for NaCl.arrow_forward
- What is the freezing point and normal boiling point of a solution made by adding 39 mL of acetone, C3H6O, to 225 mL of water? The densities of acetone and water are 0.790 g/cm3 and 1.00 g/cm3, respectively.arrow_forwardDistinguish between a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, and a nonelectrolyte. How can colligative properties be used to distinguish between them? What is the vant Hoff factor? Why is the observed freezing-point depression for electrolyte solutions sometimes less than the calculated value? Is the discrepancy greater for concentrated or dilute solutions?arrow_forwardA solution was prepared by dissolving 0.800 g of sulfur, Sg, in 100.0 g of acetic acid, HC2H3O2. Calculate the freezing point and boiling point of the solution.arrow_forward
- A 0.029 M solution of potassium sulfate has an osmotic pressure of 1.79 atm at 25 C. (a) Calculate the vant Hoff factor, i, for this solution. (b) Would the vant Hoff factor be larger, smaller, or the same for a 0.050 M solution of this compound?arrow_forwardUrea, (NH2)2CO, has been used to melt ice from sidewalks, because the use of salt is harmful to plants. If the saturated aqueous solution contains 41% urea by mass, what is the freezing point? (The answer will be approximate, because the equation in the text applies accurately only to dilute solutions.)arrow_forwardCalculate the freezing point and normal boiling points of each of the following aqueous solutions. (a) 2.63 m acetic acid (b) 33.0 % by mass lactose, C12H22O11 (c) 32.15 mL of ethylene glycol, C2H6O2(d=1.113g/mL) in 624 mL of water (d=1.00g/mL)arrow_forward
