Answer:
Molality is defined as the “total moles of a solute contained in a kilogram of a solvent.
\(Molality(M)= \frac{Number\, of\, moles\, of\, solute}{Mass\, of\, solvent\, in\, kgs}\)
\(Molality(M)= \frac{g \times 1000}{W \times m}\)
12.5% w/w means 12.5 g in 100 g of solution.
Weight of solvent = 100 g – 12.5 g= 87.5 g.
Number of moles of sulphuric acid(H2SO4) = 12.5/ 98
Number of moles of H2SO4 = 0.127 mol
\(Molality(M)= \frac{0.127\times 1000}{87.5}\)
Molality (M) = 1.45 m
