Important Numerical: Depression in Freezing Point

Here is the detailed step-by-step solution for the board exam numerical based on our most requested study material.

Question: A 5% aqueous solution by mass of cane sugar (Molar mass \( 342 \text{ g mol}^{-1} \)) has a freezing point of \( 271 \text{ K} \). Calculate the freezing point of a 5% aqueous glucose solution.

Given:
  • Mass of cane sugar (\( w_1 \)) = \( 5 \text{ g} \)
  • Mass of water (\( w_2 \)) = \( 100 - 5 = 95 \text{ g} \)
  • Molar mass of cane sugar (\( M_1 \)) = \( 342 \text{ g mol}^{-1} \)
  • Freezing point of sugar solution (\( T_f \)) = \( 271 \text{ K} \)
  • Freezing point of pure water (\( T_f^\circ \)) = \( 273.15 \text{ K} \)
Formula:
Key Formula: \[ \Delta T_f = K_f \times m = K_f \times \frac{w_1 \times 1000}{M_1 \times w_2} \]
Substitution and Calculation:

First, find the depression in freezing point for cane sugar:

\[ \Delta T_f = 273.15 \text{ K} - 271 \text{ K} = 2.15 \text{ K} \]

Calculate \( K_f \) for water:

\[ 2.15 = K_f \times \frac{5 \times 1000}{342 \times 95} \implies K_f = \frac{2.15 \times 342 \times 95}{5000} = 13.99 \text{ K kg mol}^{-1} \]

Now, for a 5% glucose solution (Molar mass of glucose, \( M_2 = 180 \text{ g mol}^{-1} \)):

\[ \Delta T_f' = 13.99 \times \frac{5 \times 1000}{180 \times 95} = 4.09 \text{ K} \] Final Answer:

Freezing point of the glucose solution = \( 273.15 - 4.09 = 269.06 \text{ K} \)

Concept Guide: Joint Stock Company

Based on the frequently asked board question: Define Joint Stock Company and Explain Its Features.

Definition: A Joint Stock Company is an artificial person created by law, having a separate legal entity, with perpetual succession and a common seal.

  1. Artificial Legal Person: It is created by law and exists independent of its members.
  2. Perpetual Succession: The death, insolvency, or retirement of members does not affect the continuous life of the company.
  3. Limited Liability: The liability of a shareholder is strictly limited to the unpaid value of their shares.
Exam Tip: Whenever defining a company, always mention "Artificial Person" and "Perpetual Succession" as examiners specifically look for these keywords to award full marks!

Distinguish Between: Fire Insurance and Marine Insurance

Basis of Distinction Fire Insurance Marine Insurance
Subject Matter Physical properties or assets like buildings, goods, and machinery. Ships, cargo, and freight.
Duration Usually taken for one year. Taken for a specific voyage or a specific time period.
Insurable Interest Must exist both at the time of taking the policy and at the time of loss. Must exist only at the time of loss.

Previous Year Board Question Papers and Languages

Reviewing previous year papers is the most effective way to understand the exam pattern and maximize your score.

Memory Trick for English Grammar: When converting from Assertive to Exclamatory, if the assertive sentence has "a" or "an", start the exclamatory sentence with "What". If there is no article, start with "How".
