Differentiate between molarity and molality for a solution. How does a change in temperature influence their values?
Ans:
Molality is defined as the number of moles of the solute per kilogram of the solvent. It is represented by m.
Molality(m) =(no.ofmolesofsolute)×1000massofsolvent(ingram)
It does not change with change in temperature.
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre or one cubic decimetre of the solution.
Molarity(M) =no.ofmolessolute×1000volumeofthesolution(inmL
It decreases with increase in temperature.
