Which relationship can be used to find the molal freezing point depression constant from the enthalpy of fusion?
Which relationship can be used to find the molal freezing point depression constant from the enthalpy of fusion?
- Kf = R × M1 × Tf2 / 1000 × ∆fusH (correct)
- Kf = R × M1 × Tf2 / ∆fusH
- Kf = R × M1 × Tf2 * 1000 / ∆fusH
- Kf = R × M1 × Tf2 * ∆fusH
