    3.50 molal

    Explanation:

    Molality → Moles of solute / kg of solvent.

    Let's convert the solvent's mass from g to kg

    16.2 g. 1kg / 1000 g = 0.0162 kg

    Let's determine the moles from the solute

    2.61 g. 1 mol / 46 g = 0.0567 moles

    Molality → 0.0567 mol / 0.0162 kg = 3.50 m
