The ionization constant of a monobasic acid $HA$ is to be determined. If a $0.025 \ m$ aqueous solution of the acid freezes at $-0.060 \ ^{\circ}C$,calculate the ionization constant $K_a$. (Assume molality = molarity and $K_f(H_2O) = 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$).

$A$ solution of urea (molar mass $60 \, g \, mol^{-1}$) boils at $100.18 \, ^oC$ at atmospheric pressure. If $K_f$ and $K_b$ for water are $1.86$ and $0.512 \, K \, kg \, mol^{-1}$ respectively,the above solution will freeze at ........... $^oC$.

Assertion : If one component of a solution obeys Raoult's law over a certain range of composition,the other component will not obey Henry's law in that range.
Reason : Raoult's law is a special case of Henry's law.
