On one of the Kaplan G Chem subject tests, on question 27, it says
23 g of ethanol (C2H5OH) is dissolved in 250 g of
water. What is the approximate freezing point of this
solution? (kf of water = 1.86°C_kg/mol)
they say that the answer is -3.7 C.
I thought that ethanol would disocciate into C2H5O- and H+, but I assume that it doesn't from this solution.
Any one have any ideas as to how I could know if some thing disocciates in water or not?
