Molecules of benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) dimerise in benzene. 'w' g of the acid dissolved in 30 g of benzene shows a depression in freezing point equal to 2K. If the percentage association of the acid to form dimer in the solution  is 80, then w is:

(Given that Kf = 5 K kg mol-1, Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122 g mol-1)

  1. 1.8 g
  2. 2.4 g
  3. 1.0 g
  4. 1.5 g

Answer

(B) 2.4 g
