What's the Point of Molality?!?

To see all my Chemistry videos, check out
socratic.org/chemistry
Molality is not as common as molarity, and it has a funny name. What is the point? Molal solutions can be easier to make than molar solutions. Also, molality doesn't change as solutions expand and contract, so they stay constant while molar solutions can change. So even though molarity is more common, there are some advantages to molal solutions.

    good question. yes you're absolutely right that water expands when it's frozen solid (to make ice), but before this phase change happens and the water is still liquid, cold water contracts and hot liquid water expands.

    Great videos! Thanks! As you point out, Molarity is tempurature (and pressure?) dependant where as Molality is not. Frequently, it IS easier to weight out the mass of solvent and get Molality -- but the referenceing calculations or literature might reference Molarity. If I know the tempurature AND eqn of state for my solvent, I can grind through the algebra and convert to Molarity. Could you demonstrate any simple techniques for converting back and forth between Molality/Molarity?

    We are considering a closed system where water cannot evaporate right? Because that's what always bothers me, weight doesn't depend on temperature but if you loose water for evaporation you are loosing it. So nobody says that but in molarity vs molality we are always assuming no evaporation, right?

    4°c means the temperature is too low (comparing with 98°c) that means it will be cold until freezes, when water freeze it will expand that means its volume will increase, BUT it will not contract Example liquid water and ice. Am I right or not please?🌼
