Short Answer
A chemist isolates a new compound with an empirical formula C3H3O2. 3.52 g of the unknown compound was dissolved in 100.0 g of water. The resulting solution had a freezing point of -0.307°C. What is the molecular formula for the unknown compound?For water, Kf = 1.86°C m−1.Hint: Use the freezing point depression to find the molar mass of the compound, then find the molecular formula as in Chapter 3.
