The correct Answer is:
To solve the given assertion and reason question, we need to establish the relationship between molarity (M) and molality (m) of a solution, especially when the density (D) of the solution is approximately 1 g/mL. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Molarity and Molality**: - Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. - Molality (m) is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. 2. **Formulas**: - Molarity (M) can be expressed as: \[ M = \frac{n}{V} = \frac{W/M_m}{V} \] where \( n \) is the number of moles, \( W \) is the mass of the solute, \( M_m \) is the molar mass of the solute, and \( V \) is the volume of the solution in liters. - Molality (m) can be expressed as: \[ m = \frac{n}{W_{solvent}} = \frac{W/M_m}{W_{solvent}} \] where \( W_{solvent} \) is the mass of the solvent in kilograms. 3. **Relating Molarity and Molality**: - The density (D) of the solution is defined as: \[ D = \frac{W_{solution}}{V} \] where \( W_{solution} = W + W_{solvent} \). - If we assume the density is approximately 1 g/mL, then 1 L of solution weighs about 1000 g. 4. **Substituting Values**: - From the density equation, we can express the volume \( V \) in terms of mass: \[ V = \frac{W + W_{solvent}}{D} \] - If \( D \approx 1 \, \text{g/mL} \), then \( V \approx W + W_{solvent} \). 5. **Finding the Relationship**: - Substitute \( V \) into the molarity equation: \[ M = \frac{W/M_m}{(W + W_{solvent})/1000} \] - Rearranging gives: \[ M = \frac{1000W}{M_m(W + W_{solvent})} \] - For molality: \[ m = \frac{W/M_m}{W_{solvent}/1000} \] - Rearranging gives: \[ m = \frac{1000W}{M_m W_{solvent}} \] 6. **Final Relationship**: - By substituting \( W_{solvent} \) in terms of molality and molarity, we can derive: \[ m = \frac{1000M}{1000 - M \cdot M_m} \] - This shows that molarity is indeed greater than molality when density is approximately 1 g/mL. ### Conclusion: - Since the derived relationship shows that molarity (M) is greater than molality (m) under the given conditions, both the assertion and the reason are correct.
