Capstone: One Aqueous Solution from IMF to Corrected Freezing Point
The idea
This capstone carries one aqueous solution from identifying the intermolecular forces driving its dissolution, through electrolyte classification, to a van't Hoff-corrected freezing point, showing that dissolution, electrolyte behavior, and colligative calculation are stages of one chain rather than separate topics.
Where people slip
Treating the dissolution mechanism, the electrolyte classification, and the freezing-point calculation as three unrelated facts about one salt, rather than three stages that all trace back to MgCl2's ionic structure and water's polarity, is exactly the fragmented reading this capstone is built to correct.
