Freezing Point Depression vs Cryoscopic Constant (Kf)

How to Calculate Freezing Point Depression

Formula

delta_Tf = i × Kf × m

For water, Kf = 1.86 C-kg/mol. New FP = pure FP - delta_Tf.

Example Calculation

0.5 m NaCl (i=2) in water.

  1. 01delta_Tf = 2 × 1.86 × 0.5 = 1.86 C
  2. 02New FP = 0 - 1.86 = -1.86 C
