A solution is prepared from 16 grams of acetic acid (CH[3]CO[2]H) and 1450 grams of water. What is the solution's molality?
-
molality = moles of solute/kilograms of solute
16g CH3CO2H * (mol/60g) = .27 moles
1450 grams H2O * (1 kg/1000g) = 1.45kg
.27/1.45 = .186 m
16g CH3CO2H * (mol/60g) = .27 moles
1450 grams H2O * (1 kg/1000g) = 1.45kg
.27/1.45 = .186 m
