Answer:
4.26m
Explanation:
Molality , m, is an unit of concentration in chemistry defined as the ratio between moles of solute (In this case, NaCl) and kg of solvent (In this case, water).
To solve the question we need to find the moles of NaCl and the mass of water in kg:
Moles NaCl -Molar mass: 58.44g/mol-:
11.7g * (1mol / 58.44g) = 0.200 moles
Mass of Water in kg:
47g * (1kg / 1000g) = 0.047kg
Molality is:
0.200 moles / 0.047kg =
4.26m
