Juanita dissolves 46 g of MgBr2 (molar mass: 184.11 g/mol) in 0.5 kg of distilled water. What is the molality of the solution?

Formula: molality, m = n solute / kg solvent

n solute = # of moles of solute = mass (g) / molar mass

Molar mass of Mg Br2 = 184.11 g/mol

m = [46g / 184.11 g/mol] / 0.5 kg = 0.50 mol/kg
