this experiment include two basic equations. One equation will calculate molality, and the other will calculate the change in freezing point temperature using the freezing point depression constant, the solution’s molality, and the van’t Hoff factor. The van’t Hoff factor is determined by finding the number of ions that a compound will dissociate into. In this experiment, freezing point depression will be utilized to determine the molecular weights and identities of two unknown compounds. EXPERIMENTAL
