Final Review Chapter 13 Flashcards
What are examples of colligative properties
Freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure
Properties that depend on the concentration of solute particles but not on their identity
Colligative property
The difference between the freezing points of the pure solvent and solution of a nonelectrolyte in the solvent, and it is correctly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution
Freezing point depression
Difference between the boiling point of the pure solvent and a nonelectrolyte solution of that solvent, and it’s directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution
Boiling point elevation
The external pressure that must be applied to stop osmosis. The number of ions must also be taken into account
Osmotic pressure

What is the formula for freezing point depression
What is the formula for boiling point elevation
What is the formula for osmotic pressure
Pie = iMRT
Salt is often used to remove ice from roads and sidewalks. Explain how this process works in terms of colligative properties
When the salt dissolves into solution and ionizes. It is the production of ions that causes the resulting solution to have a lower freezing point than the solvent. The more ions that are produced in solution the lower the resulting freezing point
Which salt NaCl or CaCl2 has a greater effect of freezing point
CaCl2 It produces more ions in solution and will cause the resulting solution to have a lower freezing point. The more particles dissolved in the solvent the lower the freezing point
