    The molality is calculated using the following rule:

    molality = number of moles of solute / kg of solvent

    From the periodic table:

    molar mass of lithium = 6.941 gm

    molar mass of chlorine = 35.453 gm

    molar mass of LiCl = 6.941 + 35.453 = 42.394 gm

    number of moles found in 42 gm = mass / molar mass = 42 / 42.394 = 0.99

    molality = 0.99 / 3.6 = 0.275 m
