Problem 11-95

To know if the salt can melt the ice, calculate the freezing point depression of water with CaCl2 at maximum concentration (74.5 g CaCl2 / 100 g water)

Then, check if Tf - ΔTf < road temperature. If so, the salt is effective to melt the ice.

The solvent is water (ice) therefore Kf = 1.86 °C.kg.mol-1

F = (°C × 1.8) + 32
