AIIMS 2009 Chemistry Colligative Properties MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

A 0.1 molal solution of an acid is 4.5% ionized. Calculate freezing point. (molecular weight of the acid is 300). Kf = 1.86 K mol⁻¹ kg.

A

-0.199°C

B

2.00°C

C

0°C

D

-0.269°C

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

If acid is 4.5% ionized then α = 0.045. ΔTf = molality x Kf = 0.01 x 18.6 = 0.186
