    Basis: 1 L of the substance.

    (1.202 g/mL) x (1000 mL) = 1202 g

    mass solute = (1202 g) x 0.2 = 240.2 g

    mass solvent = 1202 g x 0.8 = 961.6 g

    moles KI = (240.2 g) x (1 mole / 166 g) = 1.45 moles

    moles water = (961.6 g) x (1 mole / 18 g) = 53.42 moles

    1. Molality = moles solute / kg solvent

    = 1.45 moles / 0.9616 kg = 1.5 m

    2. Molarity = moles solute / L solution

    = 1.45 moles / 1 L solution = 1.45 M

    3. molar mass = mole solute / total moles

    = 1.45 moles / (1.45 moles + 53.42 moles) = 0.0264
