The correct Answer is:
To analyze the assertion and reason provided in the question, we can break down the concepts step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states: "The freezing point is the temperature at which solid crystallizes from solution." **Explanation:** - The freezing point of a solution is indeed the temperature at which the liquid phase transitions into the solid phase. This means that at this temperature, the solute and solvent begin to form a solid structure. ### Step 2: Understanding the Reason The reason states: "The freezing point depression is the difference between that temperature and the freezing point of pure solvent." **Explanation:** - Freezing point depression refers to the phenomenon where the freezing point of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent. This is quantified as: \[ \Delta T_f = T_{f}^{0} - T_{f} \] where: - \( \Delta T_f \) is the freezing point depression, - \( T_{f}^{0} \) is the freezing point of the pure solvent, - \( T_{f} \) is the freezing point of the solution. ### Step 3: Conclusion Both the assertion and the reason are correct. The freezing point is indeed the temperature at which a solid crystallizes from a solution, and the freezing point depression is the difference between the freezing point of the pure solvent and that of the solution. ### Final Answer - **Assertion:** True - **Reason:** True - **Conclusion:** Both the assertion and reason are correct and related. ---
