The percent by mass of methanol (MM = 32.04 g/mol) in an aqueous solution is 21.1%. What is the molality of the methanol solution?

Molality of the methanol solution = 8.33 m

Explanation:

Given:

Mass % = 21.1 %

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g / mol

Find:

Molality of the methanol solution?

Computation:

Moles of methanol = Mass / Molar mass

Moles of methanol =  = 21.1 / 32.04

Moles of methanol = 0.658

Assume.

Mass of solution = 100 g

Mass of solvent  = 100 -21.1 = 78.9 g  = 0.0789 kg

Molality of the methanol solution = 0.658 / 0.0789

Molality of the methanol solution = 8.33 m
