Q29 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (01 Feb Shift 1) · Chemistry

The density of 3M solution of NaCl is 1.0 g mL-1. Molality of the solution is ______×10-2 m (Nearest integer).

Given: Molar mass of Na and Cl is 23 and 35.5 g mol-1 respectively.

Correct answer: 364

Solution

Formula unit mass of sodium chloride = 23 + 35.5 gmol-1 = 58.5 gmol-1
∴m(molality)=1000×M1000×d-M×M.W of solute    ...(M = Molarity of solution)

=1000×31000×1-(3×58.5)=3.64

=364×10-2

 

Hence, the correct answer is 364.
