Calculate the mass of compound (molar mass = 256 g mol-1) to be dissolved in 75 of benzene to lower its freezing point by 0.48 K (Kf= 5.12 kg mol-1 )
Outline the principles behind the refining of metals by the following methods:
Zone refining method
Zone Refining Method:
Zone refining method is based on the principle that impurities are more soluble in the molten state than in the solid state of a metal. This method is used in the purification of elements like Germanium(Ge), Silicon(Si), Indium (In) etc.
