Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

A solution of urea (mol. mass 56 g mol⁻¹) boils at 100.18°C at the atmospheric pressure. If kf and kb for water are 1.86 and 0.512 K kg mol⁻¹ respectively, the above solution will freeze at:

A

-6.54°C

B

-65.4°C

C

65.4°C

D

-0.654°C

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

The freezing point depression can be calculated using ΔTf = iKfm, where m is the molality. The calculated freezing point is0s^{-0}.654°C.
