Which aqueous solution has higher concentration`:1` molar or 1 molal solution of the same solute ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1 Molar solution has higher concentration than 1 molal solution. A molar solution contains one mole of in one litre of solution while a one molal solution contains one mole of solute in 1000 g of solvent. If density of water is one, then one mole of solute is present in 1000 ml of water in 1 molal solution while one mole of solute is present in less than 1000 mL of water in 1 molar solution (1000 ml solution = amount of solute + amount of solvent). Thus, 1 molar solution is more concentrated.

    Statement-1. One molar aqueous solution has always higher concentration than one molal solution. Statement-2. One molar solution contains less solvent than one molal solution.

    Assertion. One molar aqueous solution has always higher concentration than one molal. Reason. The molality of a solution depends upon the density of the solution whereas molarity does not.
