QUESTION:

Calculate the molality of a solution containing 257 g glucose \(\mathrm {(C_6H_{12}O_6)}\) dissolved in 1.62 L of water. (Assume a density of 1.00 g/mL for water.)

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

Here, we have to calculate the molality of each solution :

First, let’s see what is molality :

Molality(m) is a property of a solution and is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. The SI unit for molality is mol/kg.

Formula to find the molality of solution :

\(\text { Molality }(\mathrm{m})=\frac{\text { moles of Solute }}{\text { mass of Solvent }(\text { in } K g)}\)
