Answer:
First, we are using the ideal gas law to get n the number of moles:
PV = nRT
when P is the pressure = 748 mmHg/760 = 0.984 atm
V is the volume = 4 L
R is ideal gas constant = 0.0821
T is the temperature in Kelvin = 300 K
∴ n = 0.984atm*4L/0.0821*300
= 0.1598 moles
when the concentration = moles * (1000g / mass)
= 0.1598 * (1000g / 58 g )
= 2.755 M
when the freezing point = 5.5 °C
and Kf = - 5.12 °C/m
∴ the freezing point for the solution = 5.5 °C + (Kf*m)
= 5.5 °C - (5.12°C/m * 2.755m)
= -8.6 °C
