What is molality of 1M solution of NaNo3 if it's density is 1.25g/cm3

Answer»

1.00 L of the 1.00 M solution contains 1.00 mole of NaNO3 and this is 84.994 g.

The total mass of the solution is this:

1000 cm^3 times 1.25 g/cm^3 = 1250 g

How much water is in the solution:

1250 g minus 85.0 g = 1165 g

molality:

1.00 mol / 1.165 kg = 0.86 m

I rounded it to two sig fig, which seemed appropriate. You may include more if you wish. I also rounded off the 84.994 to 85 for convenience in subtraction
