A solution of urea (mol. mass .56 ~g ~mol ⁻¹ ) boils at 100.18^ C at the atmospheric pressure. If K _f and K _b for water for 1.86 and 0.512 Kkmol ⁻¹ respectively, the above solution will freeze at:
Options
- A0.654^ C
- B-0.654^ C
- C6.54^ C
- D-6.54^ C
Correct answer
B. -0.654^ C
Step-by-step solution
