88.8% urea means 88.8g urea/100 g soln.
I would set up
[xgrams urea/(500g H2O + x g urea)] = 0.888
Solve for x to obtain grams urea needed.
moles fraction = moles urea/total moles.
Plug this information into
delta T = Kf*m and
delta T = Kb*m. You will need to convert mass percent to molality.
How many grams of Urea would you have to dissolve in 500ml of H2O in order for the mass percent of H2O to be 88.8%? What is the mole fraction of Urea? What are the new boiling and freezing points?
