用法筆記

Frequently used attributively before nouns such as 'solution' or 'concentration'. Unlike 'molar', molal values do not change with temperature because they are based on mass rather than volume.

常見錯誤

❌We prepared a 1-molal solution by adding one mole of salt to one liter of water.
✅We prepared a 1-molal solution by adding one mole of salt to one kilogram of water.
💡Molal concentration uses mass of solvent (kilograms), not volume (liters).
❌The molal concentration changed when we heated the solution.
✅The molal concentration stayed the same when we heated the solution.
💡Molality is based on mass, which does not change with temperature, unlike molarity.
