Answer:
1.99M
Explanation:
Molality can be calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the mass of the solvent i.e.
Molality (M) = n of solute (mol) ÷ mass of solvent (kg)
Based on the information, mass of HCl (solute) = 18.2g, mass of solvent (water) = 250.0g
mole of solute = mass/molar mass
Molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/lol
mole = 18.2/36.5
mole = 0.499mol
Mass of solvent = 250.0g
In Kg, mass of water = 250/1000
= 0.250Kg
Molality = 0.499/0.250
Molality = 1.996
Molality of the solution = 1.99M
