When 130. g of urea are dissolved in 950.g of a certain mystery liquid , the freezing point of the solution is 2.90 c less than the freezing point of pure x. calculate the mass of potassium bromide that must be dissolved in the same mass of to produce the same depression in freezing point. the van't hoff factor = 1.9 for potassium bromide in x. be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

We need 135.5 grams of potassium bromide

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of urea = 130 grams

Mass of liquid = 950 grams = 0.950 kg

The freezing point of the solution is 2.90 C less than the freezing point of pure X

The van't Hoff factor = 1.9 for potassium bromide in X

Step 2: Calculate moles urea

Moles urea = mass urea / molar mass urea

Moles urea = 130 grams / 60.06 g/mol

Moles urea = 2.16 moles

Step 3: Calculate molality

Molality = moles urea / mass liquid X

Molality = 2.16 moles / 0.950 kg

Molality = 2.27 molal

Step 4: Calculate Kf

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒with ΔT = the freezing point depression = 2.90 °C

⇒with i = the van't Hoff factor of urea = 1

⇒with Kf = the freezing point depression constant = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with m = the molality = 2.27 molal

2.90 °C =  1 * Kf * 2.27 molal

Kf = 2.90 / 2.27

Kf = 1.28 °C/m

Step 5: Calculate molality

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒with ΔT = the freezing point depression = 2.90 °C

⇒with i = the van't Hoff factor of potassium bromide = 1.9

⇒with Kf = the freezing point depression constant = 1.28 °C/m

⇒with m = the molality = TO BE DETERMINED

2.90 °C = 1.9 * 1.28 °C/m * m

m = 1.19 molal

Step 6: Calculate moles potassium bromide

molality = moles KBr / mass X

1.19 molal = moles KBr / 0.950 kg

moles KBr = 1.19 * 0.950 kg

Moles KBr = 1.13 moles KBr

Step 7: Calculate mass KBr

Mass KBr = moles KBr * molar mass KBr

Mass KBr = 1.13 moles * 119.0 g/mol

Mass KBr = 135.5 grams

We need 135.5 grams of potassium bromide

because of all the things that happen around the us, many people get into arguments which sadly could get physical, but we should actually make a change for that.
