Is there a difference between freezing point depression and freezing point?

Answer 1

This is simply because the evaporation enthalpy is bigger than the enthalpy of fusion. ΔTf = -Kf · m (m= molality) ΔTb = Kb · m (m= molality) what is important is that Kf is proportional to 1/Enthalpy of fusion and the sam is true for Kb (with enthalpy of evaporation)

Answer 2

Yes.

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid.

Freezing point depression is the lowering of a substance's freezing point by adding a nonvolatile solute.

Answer 3

Yes, there is a difference between freezing point depression and freezing point. Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid, while freezing point depression is the phenomenon where the freezing point of a solvent is lowered by adding a solute to it.

Answer 4

Freezing point is the phase change from a liquid to a solid, whereas boiling point is the phase change from a liquid to a gas.
