  2. B 20
  3. C 30
  4. D 40
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 20

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, Moles of solute \((n)=1 \mathrm{~mol}\) Mass of solvent \(\left(w_A\right)=50 \mathrm{~g}\) \(\because\) Molality \((m)=\frac{n \times 1000}{w_A(\text { in g) }}\) \(\therefore \quad m=\frac{1000}{50}=20 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1}\) Hence, option (2) is the correct…
