Question
Calculate the molality of a 0.533 M aqueous solution of iron(II) chloride with a density, p = 1.059 g/mL. Report answer in three significant figures.
Expert Solution
Step 1

We have been given, a 0.533 M aqueous solution, means, the molarity is 0.533.

Molarity is the number of moles present per liter of the solution. 

Also, density = 1.059 g/mL.

We have to find out molality of the solution which is number of moles of solute present per kg of the solution.

Given solute is iron(II) Chloride 

Molar mass of solute = 127 g/mol
