In an aqueous solution the mole fraction of solute is 0.05. If the solvent is water what is the approximate molality of the solution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2.92 mol kg−1

Choose a convenient basis of 1 mol total solution. Then solute moles = 0.05 mol and water moles = 0.95 mol. Using the molar mass of water, 18 g mol−1, the solvent mass is 0.95 × 18 = 17.1 g = 0.0171 kg. Molality = moles of solute ÷ kilograms of solvent = 0.05/0.0171 ≈ 2.92 mol kg−1. Hence option B is correct; total solution mass must not be used.
