Answer- The above question is from the chapter 'Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry'.
Question: What is molality and molarity?
Answer: MOLALITY-
Molality: It is the number of moles of solution in 1 kg of solvent.
Unit of Molality: Molal (m)
•When mass of solvent is in kilograms,
Molality = Moles of solute ÷ Mass of solvent in kilograms
•When mass of solvent is in grams,
Molality = Moles of solute × 1000 ÷ Mass of solvent in grams
MOLARITY:
Molarity: Number of moles of solute present in 1 litre of solution is called molarity.
Unit of Molarity = Molar (M)
•When volume is given in litres,
Molarity = Number of moles of solute ÷ Volume of solution in litres
•When volume is given in millilitres,
Molarity = (Number of moles of solute × 1000) ÷ Volume of solution in ml
•When mass % and density is given,
Molarity = (Mass % × Density × 10) ÷ Molar mass of Solute
