Molality Calculator
Calculate the molality of a solution by entering the mass of solute and solvent below.
Molality = 0.00 mol/kg
Formula:
Molality (m) = (moles of solute) / (kg of solvent)
Understanding Molality in Chemistry
Molality (m) is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solvent in terms of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. It's particularly useful in chemistry because it's independent of temperature.
Key Concepts
- Molality is expressed in mol/kg or m
- Unlike molarity, molality doesn't change with temperature
- Commonly used in colligative properties calculations
Common Applications
- Freezing point depression calculations
- Boiling point elevation studies
- Osmotic pressure determinations
