Consider the use of the solid camphor (freezing point is 179.5 o C) as a solvent for freezing point depression.

1.     Consider the use of the solid camphor (freezing point is 179.5 oC) as a solvent for freezing point depression.

a.      Describe, using the definition of freezing point depression, how you would determine Kf for camphor.

b.     Knowing that Kf for camphor is 40 oC/m, determine the freezing point of a 0.14m solution of reserpine, assuming it is a non-electrolyte

c.      In actuality reserpine is a weakly ionic material that only partially dissociates. In a separate experiment, you determine that the reserpine is 12.4 % dissociated. Taking this into account, determine the actual freezing point of the solution.
