Ethylene glycol is used as an antifreeze in a cold climate. Mass of ethylene glycol which should be added to 4 kg of water to prevent it from freezing at –6°C will be: (Kf for water = 1.86 Kg/mol and molar mass of ethylene glycol = 62 kg/mol)
A) 204.60 g
B) 304.30 g
C) 804.32 g
D) 400.00 g
Answer: C) 804.32 g
Explanation:
for ethylene glycol in aq. solution
=> w = 800 g
So, the weight of solute should be more than 800 g.
