Answer:

The answer to your question is m = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Molality is defined as the number of moles of a solute dissolved in a mass of solvent (kg).

Data

moles of solute = 43.6

mass of solvent = 13.5 kg

Formula

Molality =
(number of moles)/(Kg of solvent)

Substitution

Molality =
(43.6)/(13.5)

Simplification and result

Molality = 3.2
