To determine:
The molality of each of the given solutions from given molarity and density

Answer to Problem 11.59QA
Solution:
a. Molality of CaCl2 = 1.34 m
b. Molality of fructose = 2.61 m
c. Molality of ethylene glycol = 17.4 m
d. Molality of LiCl = 2.05 m
Explanation of Solution
1. Formulae:
i. Molality of the solution is moles of solute divided by the mass of solvent in kg.
ii. Molarity of the solution is moles of solute divide by volume of solution in liter.
iii. Density of solution is mass divided by volume of solution
iv. Mass of the solution is mass of solvent and mass of solute
To calculate the molality of the solution, we need to calculate the moles of solute and mass of solvent in kg from the density and molarity.
A mole is the SI unit of amount chemical substance. When writing units, it is written as “mol”.
a. Molality of CaCl2
2. Given
i.
ii. Density (d)
3. Calculations
To calculate the moles of CaCl2 from
So, moles of solute
The mass of CaCl2 is
