Question:
The freezing point depression constant for water is $-1.86^{\circ} Cm^{-1}$. If $5.00 \,g$ $Na_2SO_4$ is dissolved in $45.0\,g$ $H_2O$, the freezing point is changed by $- 3.82^{\circ} C$. Calculate the Van't Hoff factor for $Na_2SO_4$.

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Using, $\Delta T _{ f }= i \times K _{ f } {\times m }$
$i =\frac{\Delta T _{ f } \times W _{ A }}{ K _{ f } \times n _{ B } \times 1000}$
$=\frac{3.82 \times 45}{1.86 \times\left(\frac{5}{142}\right) \times 1000} $
$=2.63$

- The spontaneous flow of the solvent through a semipermeable membrane from a pure solvent to a solution or from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution is called osmosis. The phenomenon of osmosis can be demonstrated by taking two eggs of the same size. In an egg, the membrane below the shell and around the egg material is semipermeable. The outer hard shell can be removed by putting the egg in dilute hydrochloric acid. After removing the hard shell, one egg is placed in distilled water and the other in a saturated salt solution. After some time, the egg placed in distilled water swells up while the egg placed in salt solution shrinks. The external pressure applied to stop the osmosis is termed as osmotic pressure (a colligative property). Reverse osmosis takes place when the applied external pressure becomes larger than the osmotic pressure.

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:
- Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
- 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.
- Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
