Question
A sample of 12 M Concentrated hydrochloric acid has a density 1.2 M gL-1 calculate the molality.
Solution
Given:
Molarity = 12 M HCl
density of solution = 1.2 g L-1
In 12 M HCl solution, there are 12 moles of HCl in 1 litre of the solution.
Molality = `"no of moles of solute"/"mass of solvent (in kg )"`
Calculate mass of water(solvent)
mass of 1 litre HCl solution = density × volume
= 1.2 × gmL-1 × 1000 mL = 1200 g
mass of HCl = no. of moles of HCl × molar mass of HCl
= 12 mol × 36.5 g mol-1
= 438 g.
mass of water = mass of HCl solution – mass of HCl
mass of water = 1200 – 438 = 762 g
molality(m) = `12/0.762` = 15.75 m
