    Out of molality (m), molarity (M), formality (F), normality (N) and mole-fraction (x), the two quantities, independent of temperature, are:

    A)  N, m                                    

    B)  m, x                     

    C)  m, N                    

    D)         F, N

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Molality (m) and mole-fraction (x) are independent of volume of solution, hence, also independent of the temperature. Their formula is based on only weights. \[m=\frac{\text{weight}\,\text{of}\,\text{solute}}{\text{molecular}\,\text{weight}\,\,\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\,\text{weight}\,\text{of}\,\text{solvent}}\] and        \[\underset{\text{(of}\,\text{solute)}}{\mathop{x}}\,=\frac{\omega \text{/}m}{\frac{\omega }{m}+\frac{\omega }{M}}=\frac{\omega M}{\omega M+\omega m}\]
