Q.

25 mL of an aqueous solution of KCl was found to required 20 mL of 1 M AgNO3 solution when titrated using K2CrO4 as an indicator. What is the depression in freezing point of KCl solution of the given concentration (Nearest integer). (Given: Kf = 2.0 K kg mol-1)

Assume

(1) 100% ionization and

(2) density of the aqueous solution as 1 g mL-1                     [2023]


Ans.

(3)

25 mL KCl v/s 20 mL of 1M AgNO3

Molarity of KCl=20×125=45M=0.8 molL

1 L solution has 0.8 mol KCl

ΔTf=ikfm

=2×2×0.8=3.23
