A solution containing 62 g ethylene glycol in 250 g water is cooled to −10°C. If for water is 1.86 K kg mol⁻¹, the amount of water (in g) separated as ice is:
- a
48
- b✓
64
- c
16
- d
32
64
Strategy:\n> Find the molality required at -10°C, and then calculate how much water must be remaining to maintain that molality. The difference from the starting water mass gives the amount of ice.\n\nStep 1: Calculate initial moles of ethylene glycol\n- Molar Mass = 62.\n- .\n\nStep 2: Calculate required final molality ()\n.\n\n\nStep 3: Solve for remaining water ()\n\n\nStep 4: Calculate mass of ice\n.\n\n
