John dissolves .5g of a white powder in 25g of benzene (FP 5oC) (kf benzene is 5.1) and finds the solution freezes at 3.7oC. Determine the MW of the compound!

The compound has a molar mass of 78.4 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: data given

Mass of a sample = 0.5 grams

Mass of benzene = 25 grams

Freezing poing = 5 °C

Kf of benzene = 5.1 °C/m

Freezing point solution = 3.7 °C

Step 2: Calculate molality

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒with ΔT = the freezing point depression = 5.0 - 3.7 = 1.3 °C

⇒with i = the can't hoff factor = 1

⇒with Kf = the freezing point depression constant of benzene = 5.1 °C/m

⇒with m = the molality

1.3 = 5.1 * m

m = 1.3 / 5.1

m = 0.255 moles /kg

Step 3: Calculate moles

Molality = moles / mass benzene

0.255 molal = moles / 0.025 kg

Moles = 0.255 molal * 0.025 kg

Moles = 0.006375 moles

Step 4: Calculate molar mass of the compound

Molar mass compund = mass / moles

Molar mass compound = 0.5 grams / 0.006375 moles

Molar mass compound = 78.4 g/mol

The compound has a molar mass of 78.4 g/mol

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.
