Given
V->"Volume of the gaseous solute"=4LV→Volume of the gaseous solute=4L
P->"Pressure of the gaseous solute"=748mm=748/760atmP→Pressure of the gaseous solute=748mm=748760atm
T->"Pressure of the gaseous solute"=27^@C=300KT→Pressure of the gaseous solute=27∘C=300K
n->"Number of moles of the gaseous solute"=?n→Number of moles of the gaseous solute=?
R->"Universal gas constant"=0.082LatmK^-1mol^-1R→Universal gas constant=0.082LatmK−1mol−1
By equation of state for ideal gas
PV=nRTPV=nRT
=>n=(PV)/(RT)=(748/760xx4)/(0.082xx300)=0.16mol⇒n=PVRT=748760×40.082×300=0.16mol
Mass of solvent (benzene)=58g=0.058kg=58g=0.058kg
Molality of the solution
="moles of solute"/"mass of solvent in kg"=moles of solutemass of solvent in kg
=0.16/0.058=2.76m=0.160.058=2.76m
The depression of freezing point
DeltaT_f="molality"xxK_f
=2.76xx5.12=14.13^@
