Show full solutionCorrect option: C
Correct answer
C2 : 1

Step-by-step explanation

For 500 g of 0.25 molal aqueous solution,

0.25 = = ......(1)

For 250 mL of 0.25 molar aqueous solution

.......(2)

Dividing equation (1) by (2), we get







Note :

(1) Molality of solution is defined as number of moles of solute present per kg of solvent.

(2) Molarity of solution is defined as number of moles of solute present per litre of solution.
