Question

Why is molality of a solution independent of temperature?

Solution

 

Molality:
Molality is amount of solute per mass of solvent. So, the concentration of solvent is expressed in terms of mass, and the mass of a substance is not affected by the change in temperature. Hence, molality is independent of temperature.
