Question

 Using the Kf value for water from your book, you prepare a solution at 25.0 °C from 9.17 mol
of some solid and 7.31 L of water (d = 0.997 g/mL), but you forgot the identity of the solid. You
know it was either glucose, sodium acetate, sodium phosphate, or sodium sulfate. You decide
to determine the mass indirectly by measuring the freezing point depression of the solution,
and find that the solution has a freezing point of −7.02 °C. Which substance is it and how do
you know this?
