Ihre Eingaben

So funktioniert es

  1. 1

    Enter the cryoscopic constant for your solvent.

  2. 2

    Enter the van't Hoff factor (number of particles per formula unit).

    Enter the molality of the solution.

  4. 4

    The calculator multiplies Kf × i × m to get the depression.

kf * i * molality

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What is the van't Hoff factor?

It is the number of particles a solute dissociates into. For non-electrolytes it is 1; for NaCl it is 2.

Why does adding solute lower the freezing point?

Solute particles disrupt the solvent's crystal lattice, requiring a lower temperature to freeze.

Can I use this for any solvent?

Yes, if you know the solvent's cryoscopic constant (Kf). For water it is 1.86 °C·kg/mol.

Formeln

Die Mathematik hinter diesem Rechner, aufgeschrieben, damit Sie das Ergebnis überprüfen können.

Freezing Point Depression

ΔTf = i × Kf × m

The depression is the product of the van't Hoff factor, the cryoscopic constant, and molality.

Example:

Input: i=2, Kf=1.86, m=0.5

Calculation: 2 × 1.86 × 0.5

Result: 1.86 °C

Anwendungsfälle im Alltag

Wo diese Berechnung im täglichen Leben vorkommt.

Antifreeze

Determine how much ethylene glycol to add to lower the freezing point of radiator fluid.

Example: Adding 1 mol/kg of ethylene glycol lowers water's freezing point by 1.86 °C.

De-icing

Estimate the effect of salt on ice melting temperature.

Example: Salt (NaCl) with i=2 lowers the freezing point twice as much as sugar.

Lab preparation

Prepare a solution with a desired freezing point for experiments.

Example: To get -3.72 °C, use 2 mol/kg NaCl in water.

Tipps und häufige Fehler

Tips

  • Use molality (mol/kg) not molarity (mol/L).
  • For strong electrolytes, use the theoretical van't Hoff factor (e.g., 2 for NaCl, 3 for CaCl2).
  • For weak electrolytes, the van't Hoff factor is less than the theoretical value.
  • Check the solvent's Kf value; it varies (water: 1.86, benzene: 5.12).

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using molarity instead of molality.
  • Forgetting to multiply by the van't Hoff factor for ionic compounds.
  • Using the wrong Kf for the solvent.

Annahmen und Einschränkungen

  • Use the stated inputs and units.
  • Results are estimates for planning and education.
  • Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
