  2. Cryoscopic constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryoscopic_constant

    Through cryoscopy, a known constant can be used to calculate an unknown molar mass. The term "cryoscopy" means "freezing measurement" in Greek. Freezing point depression is a colligative property, so ΔT depends only on the number of solute particles dissolved

  3. Freezing-point depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing-point_depression

    The phenomenon of freezing-point depression has many practical uses. The radiator fluid in an automobile is a mixture of water and ethylene glycol. The freezing-point depression prevents radiators from freezing in winter. Road salting takes advantage of this effect to lower the freezing point of the ice it is placed on.

  6. Freezing point depression osmometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing_point_depression...

    The freezing point depression osmometer is an osmometer that is used in determining a solution's osmotic concentration as its osmotically active aspects depress its freezing point. In the past, freezing point osmometry has been used to assess the osmotic strength of colloids and solutions. The osmometer uses the solution's freezing point ...

  7. Colligative properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colligative_properties

    Freezing point depression and boiling point elevation. In chemistry, colligative properties are those properties of solutions that depend on the ratio of the number of solute particles to the number of solvent particles in a solution, and not on the nature of the chemical species present. [1]

  8. Freezing level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing_level

    The 0 °C isotherm under normal conditions. The freezing level, or 0 °C (zero-degree) isotherm, represents the altitude in which the temperature is at 0 °C (the freezing point of water) in a free atmosphere (i.e. allowing reflection of the sun by snow, icing conditions, etc.).

  9. Van 't Hoff factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_factor

    The van 't Hoff factor i (named after Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff) is a measure of the effect of a solute on colligative properties such as osmotic pressure, relative lowering in vapor pressure, boiling-point elevation and freezing-point depression.
