How to calculate molality
Molality measures the concentration of a solution as moles of solute per kilogram of solvent — distinct from molarity, which uses solution volume instead of solvent mass.
How the calculation works
Molality = Moles of solute ÷ Mass of solvent (kg).
Example
2 moles of solute dissolved in 0.5 kg of solvent: 2÷0.5 = 4 mol/kg (4 molal).

Pro Tips for Molality
- Molality uses solvent mass, which doesn't change with temperature, making it preferred over molarity for calculations involving temperature changes (like freezing point depression).
- Don't confuse molality (moles per kg of solvent) with molarity (moles per liter of solution) — they use different denominators and aren't interchangeable.
Common Molality Mistakes to Avoid
- Using solution volume (as in molarity) instead of solvent mass, which would actually be calculating molarity, not molality, despite the similar-sounding names.
