MolalityEasyQuestion 750003

Question

Molality (m) is temperature-independent because:
  1. A
    It uses mass (kg) of solvent, not volume
    Correct
  2. B
    It uses moles of solvent
  3. C
    It uses density
  4. D
    It is always 1 mol/kg

Correct answer

It uses mass (kg) of solvent, not volume

Explanation

Molality = moles of solute / mass of solvent in kg. Mass does not change with temperature, so molality is temperature-independent.
