  • Calculate Molality: Glucose Solution with Step-by-Step Instructions
    Here's how to calculate the molality of the glucose solution:

    1. Calculate the moles of glucose:

    * Molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6):

    (6 * 12.01 g/mol) + (12 * 1.01 g/mol) + (6 * 16.00 g/mol) = 180.18 g/mol

    * Moles of glucose:

    90 g / 180.18 g/mol = 0.5 mol

    2. Calculate the mass of water in kilograms:

    * Mass of water: 800 g

    * Mass of water in kilograms: 800 g / 1000 g/kg = 0.8 kg

    3. Calculate the molality:

    * Molality (m): Moles of solute / kilograms of solvent

    * Molality: 0.5 mol / 0.8 kg = 0.625 mol/kg

    Therefore, the molality of the glucose solution is 0.625 mol/kg.
