The mass of the ethylene glycol used is 14.26 g

What is the freezing point?

The freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid is converted to a solid.

Given that;

ΔT = 0.0°C - ( -4.3°C) = 4.3°C

ΔT = 4.3°C

But we know that

ΔT = k m i

m = ΔT/k i

m = 4.3°C/1.86 °C/m * 1

m = 2.3 m

Now;

Let the mass of  ethylene glycol be m

Molar mass of  ethylene glycol = 62 g/mol

Mass of solvent = 100.0 g or 0.1 Kg

Then;

2.3= m/62/0.1

2.3 = m/62 * 0.1

m = 2.3 * 62 * 0.1

m = 14.26 g
