134 grams of nitric acid is added to 512 grams of water. Calculate the molality of nitric acid.

0.004 m

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of nitric acid = 132 g

Mass of water = 512 g

Molality of nitric acid = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Molality = number of moles of solute / mass of solvent in Kg

Number of moles of nitric acid:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 132 g/ 63.01 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.09 mol

Molality:

m = 2.09 mol / 512 Kg

m = 0.004 m
