A salt water solution is found to have a mass of 117.25 grams. If 5.40 grams of sodium chloride was originally added, how many grams of water are in the solution?
117.25 g salt water solution - 5.40 g sodium chloride = 111.85 g water
A solution of contains 118.7 g of water and 7.778 grams of sodium chloride. What is its molality in mol/kg? HINT: Molality = moles of solute/kg of solvent.
7.778 g NaCl x ( 1 mol NaCl / 58.44 g NaCl ) = 0.1331 mol NaCl
118.7 g H2O x ( 1 kg / 1000 g) = 0.1187 kg H2O
molality (m) = mol of solute / kg of solvent
m = 0.1331 mol NaCl / 0.1187 kg H2O = 1.1213 mol/kg

A (non-aqueous) solution is found to have a molality of 1.86 molal and experiences a freezing point depression of 7.90 degrees C. What is the Kf of the solvent (in degrees C/m)? HINT: Non-aqueous solutions do not tend to split into ions.
Kf = degrees C / m
Kf = 7.90 degrees C / 1.86 m
Kf = 4.25 degrees C/m
