Considering acetic acid dissociates in water, its dissociation constant is 6.25×10−5. If 5 mL of acetic acid is dissolved in 1 litre water, the solution will freeze at −x×10−2∘C, provided pure water freezes at 0∘C.
x= _________. (Nearest integer)
Given :(Kf)water =1.86 K kg mol−1 density of acetic acid is 1.2 g mol−1. molar mass of water =18 g mol−1. molar mass of acetic acid= 60 g mol−1. density of water =1 g cm−3
Acetic acid dissociates as CH3COOH⇌CH3COO⊖+H⊕
