Calculate the molality of 2.0 m mgcl2 solution. the density of the solution is 1.127 g/ml. (the molar mass of mgcl2 = 95.211 g/mol and the molar mass of h2o is 18.02 g/mol.)

The answer is 2.135 mol/Kg

Given that molarity is 2M, that is, 2 moles in 1 liter of solution.

Density of solution is 1.127 g/ml

Volume of solution is 1L or 1000 ml

mass of solution (m) = density × volume

m₁ = density × volume = 1.127 × 1000 = 1127 g

mass of solute, m₂ = number of moles × molar mass

m₂ = 2 × 95.211

m₂ = 190.422 g

mass of solvent = m₁ - m₂

= 1127 - 190.422

= 936.578 g

= 0.9366 Kg

molality = number of moles of solute / mass of solvent (in kg)

= 2 / 0.9366

= 2.135 mol/Kg

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.
