1.00 g of a non-electrolyte solute when dissolved in 50 g of organic solvent,
lowered the freezing point of the organic solvent by 0.50 K. If the freezing point depression constant of the organic solvent is \(5 K kg mol ^{-1}\), the molar mass of the solute will be

  1. A \(250 g mol ^{-1}\)
  2. B \(200 g mol ^{-1}\)
  3. C \(350 g mol ^{-1}\)
  4. D \(300 g mol ^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(200 g mol ^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(M_2 = K_f \cdot \frac{w_2}{\Delta T_f \cdot w_1}\) \(M_2 = 5 \, K \, kg \, mol^{-1} \cdot \frac{1.00 \, g}{0.50 \, K \cdot 0.050 \, kg}\) \(M_2 = 200 \, g \, mol^{-1}\)
