A Low-Cost and Simple Demonstration of Freezing Point Depression and Colligative Properties with Common Salts and Ice Cream

Abstract: A laboratory activity was developed to teach freezing point depression and colligative properties to introductory-level chemistry students. The laboratory uses food-grade reagents and is delivered in two units that can be taught in a single 2 hour session or two separate sessions. The total cost of the consumables is 1 USD. In the first part of this two-part activity, students perform measurements on the properties of five salt solutions to better know and understand freezing point depression. In the second pa… Show more

“…Project #1 focuses on determining an unknown’s identity with freezing and melting points. Many freezing-point depression experiments are known; , herein, we use menthol as a solvent and spice compounds as the solute. In the FS session, student teams measure menthol and cinnamic acid melting points using a melting point apparatus.…”
