Problems of Ions in Aqueous Solutions and Colligative Properties?

Can you help explain them and possibly give me answers so I can at least check my work? I have no idea what I'm doing.

5. Some insects survive cold winters by generating an antifreeze inside their cells. The antifreeze produced is glycerol, C3H5(OH)3 a nonvolatile non electrolyte that is quite soluble in water. What must the molality of a glycerol solution be to lower the freezing point of water to -25 degrees Celcius?

6. How many grams of methanol, CH3OH, should be added to 200.g of acetic acid to lower its freezing point by 1.30 degrees Celcius.

7 The boiling point of a solution of glucose, C6H12O6, and water was recorded to be 100.34 degrees Celcius. Calculate the molality of this solution.

    5) ΔTf = Kf * m *i

    where Kf is a constant , m is the molality , i is the number of particles in solution in this case =1

    for water Kf = 1.86

    so 25 = 1.86 *m *1

    m = 13.44

    6) Kf for Acetic acid = 3.90

    ΔTf = Kf * m *i

    1.3 = 3.9 * m * 1 ; so m = .333

    m= .333 moles / Kg of solvent = .06666 moles in 200 ml

    = .06666 * 32.04 g of methanol = 2.12 g

    7) Kf for water = 1.86

    ΔTf = Kf * m *i

    .34 = 1.86 * m *1

    m= .182m

    I hope the "solutions" are helpful P:

    Dont have plenty time will answer ebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdst one. Freezing pt melancholy is: ?Tf = Kf - m for this reason 7.ebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cd= Kf-m m is gram solute consistent with kg solvent is [ebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cdebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cd]ebe07b5ab71cb128f4b7addf2aa48cd0.5 you be conscious of Kf from tables and now locate X.
