Calculate the freezing point of a solution containing 60 g of glucose (Molar mass = 180 g mol–1) in 250 g of water.
(Kf of water = 1.86 K kg mol–1)
We know
ΔT f= k f × m
Where ΔTf is the depression in the freezing point
Kf freezing constant for water
m is molality
The molality(m) of a given solution of glucose:

M=1.33 mol kg-1
Putting the values in the equation, we get
ΔTf= 1.86 × 1.33K
ΔT f= 2.4738K
ΔT f
= T f × 2.4738K
Δt(solution) = t(solvent) – ΔTf
ΔT f= Tf0
2.4738K
= 273.15 - 2.4738K
= 270.65K
