<span>Because it is defined such that the mass of Avogadro's number of particles (atoms or molecules) of a substance (the molar mass) is equal to the sum of the numerical values of the atomic masses of its constituent elements</span>

What is the molality of a solution that contains 1.34 moles of NaCl in 2.47 kg of solvent

dsp73

The molality is 0.54 M when 1.34 moles of NaCl is present in 2.47 kg of solvent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molality is the measure of how much of amount of solute is dissolved in the solvent. So it is calculated as the ratio of moles of solute to the grams of solvent.

$\text {Molality}=\frac{\text {Moles of solute}}{\text {Mass of solvent}}$

As in this case, the solute is NaCl and solvent is unknown. So the moles of solute is given as 1.34 moles and the mass of solvent is given as 2.47 kg.

Hence, $\text { molality }=\frac{1.34}{2.47}= 0.54 \mathrm{M}$
