Question:

A solution containing $62\, g$ ethylene glycol in $250 \,g$ water is cooled to $-10^{\circ}C$. If $K_f$ for water is $1.86\, K\, kg \,mol^{-1}$, the amount of water (in g) separated as ice is :

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

$\Delta T_f = k_f. m $ $10 = 1.86 \times \frac{62 / 62}{W_{kg}}$ $W = 0.186 \; kg$ $\Delta W = (250 - 186) = 64 \; gm $

Solutions

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.

For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.

Types of Solutions:

The solutions can be classified into three types:

  • Solid Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Solid-state.
  • Liquid Solutions- In these solutions, the solvent is in a Liquid state.
  • Gaseous Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Gaseous state.

On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:

  1. Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
  2. Saturated Solution- A solution in which no solute can be dissolved after reaching a certain amount of temperature is known as an unsaturated saturated solution.
  3. Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
