An aqueous solution is made by dissolving 18.5 grams of zinc sulfate in 421 grams of water. The molality of zinc sulfate in the solution is ____ m.
The formula for molality is written as below
Molality = moles of solute ⁄ mass of solvent in kg …..equation 1
In the question, water is the solvent and zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) is the solute.
From the data
Mass of solvent = 421g = 0.421kg
Mass of solute =18.5 g
Now we need to find the moles of solute
Moles of solute = mass of solute ⁄ molar mass of solute…..equation 2
Molar mass of solute (ZnSO4) is calculated as
= mass of Zn + mass of S + (4×mass of O)
= 65.38 + 32.065 + (4×16)
= 161.445gmol-1
Put the value of molar mass of solute from the above calculation and mass of solute from the data in equation 2.
=18.5 g ⁄ 161.445gmol-1
= 0.1146 mol
So the number of moles = 0.1146 mol
Put the value of number of moles of solute from the above calculation and the mass of solvent from the data in equation 1.
=0.1146mol ⁄ 0.421kg
=0.2721mol kg-1
So the molality of the given solution is 0.2721mol kg-1or 0.2721 m.
