calculate the mas of NACl (molar mass = 58.5 g mol) to bedissolved in 40 g of water to lower the freezing point by
2 degree celsius, assuming that NACl undergoes complete dissociation. [ Kf for water = 1.86 K mol]

This is a colligative property based question.we know the formula for lowering of freezing point is :-

i*K*m=del T

Here m is molality and K is the dissociation constant. On applying the formula we get the mass of NaCl to be 1.25g.
