Answer:
The freezing point depression can be calculated using the pure solvent freezing point and the molality of the solution.
At the freezing point, the vapor pressure of both the solid and liquid form of a compound must be equal.
The freezing point of a substance is the temperature at which the solid and liquid forms are in equilibrium.
To reattain equilibrium, the freezing point of the solute and solvent mixture is lowered relative to the original pure solvent.
