I did not know about that formula, very cool. It seems linear (unless the molality is a non-linear term), whereas the empirical data gets pretty whacky at higher concentrations. Maybe its validity is for low concentrations? I’m getting closer to -27C from this plot

Either way that’s getting close to “don’t lick it” temperatures lol!
