7.45 grams of KCL s dissolved in 100 grams of water.whaat will be the molality of the solution |

Answer» Answer: 1 MOLE/kg. Explanation: Molality is DEFINED as the number of moles of SOLUTE present in 1kg of solvent. and is denoted by m. Thus, molality(m) = No. of moles of solute / Mass of solvent. Here, solute is 7.45 grams of KCl and solvent is 100 grams of water = 0.1 kg GMW of KCl= 39+35.5=74.5g Moles of KCl: 74.5 g of KCl = 1 mole (for any weight) then, 7.45 g of KCl = X moles x =7.45 x 1/74.5 x=0.1 mole.
So, molality(m) = No. of moles of solute / Mass of solvent molality= 0.1/0.1 = 1 mole/kg. (Remember that the numerator PART of the formula is moles and not mass) Hope it helps:) All the best!!!
