Here is some help for those of you that have not yet successfully 
complete the freezing point depression prelab...

Remember,

$\Delta T = k_f m$  where m is the molality (moles of solute divided by 
the kilograms of solvent).

$\frac{(\Delta T )(\mathrm{kg\  \ of\ \  solvent})}{k_f} = 
\mathrm{moles\ of\ solute}$

Once you calculate the moles of solute use that value and the mass of 
solute to determine the molar mass of the solute.
