Solution Summary

In this solution we learn how to calculate the molality of a solution. Then we predict whether the solution will change its freezing point. An explanation for why it does or does not change is included!

Solution Preview

1) Molality means moles of solute in kg of solvent, so we need to find moles of C12H22O11, molecular weight=342.3g/mol

89.5g * 1mol/342.3g = 0.261moles of this substance

895g * ...
