Dissolution of 1.5 g of a non-volatile solute `(mol.wt.=60)` in 250 g of a solvent reduces its freezing point by `0.01^(@)C`. Find the molal depression constant of the solvent.A. `0.01`B. `0.001`C. `0.0001`D. `0.1`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Depression in freezing point, `DeltaT_(f)=K_(f)xxm`
`DeltaT_(f)=K_(f)xxm`
`"where,m=molality"=("wt.of solute"xx 1000)/("mol.wt.of solute"xxwt.of" solvent")` "
`=(1.5xx1000)/(60xx250)=0.1`
`DeltaT_(f)=K_(f)xx0.1`
`0.01=K_(f)xx0.1`
`:.K_(f)=(0.01)/(0.1)=0.1^(@)C kg" mol"^(-1)`
