The freezing point of solution containing \(10 \mathrm{~mL}\) of non-volatile and non-electrolyte liquid " \(A\) " in \(500 \mathrm{~g}\) of water is \(-0.413^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). If \(K_f\) of water is \(1.86 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) and the molecular weight of \(A=60 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\), what is the density of the solution in \(\mathrm{g} \mathrm{mL}^{-1}\) ? (Assume \(\Delta_{\text {mix }} V=0\) )

  1. A 1.13
  2. B 1.3
  3. C 0.9
  4. D 0.993
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 0.993

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, Volume of solute \(=10 \mathrm{~mL}\) \(\Delta T_f=0-(-0.413)=0.413^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) \(w(\) solvent \()=500 \mathrm{~g}\) \(K_f\) (water) \(=1.86 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\left(=w_A\right)\) Molecular weight of \((A)\) or \(M_B=60 \mathrm{~g}\) Let…
