Why molality is preferred over molarity in expressing the concentration of a solution?

Answered by admin @



Molarity is no. moles of solute in 1 litre of solution.while Molality is no. of moles in 1kg of solvent
Volume of solution change when temperature changes but weight remain same it not change so molality is preferred over molarity
