Detailed Solution

We know that Molality=No. of moles of solute Volume of solution(in Kg)

Therefore, unit of molality are mole Kg-1.

The unit of molality is moles per kilogram (mol/kg), which is often written as mol Kg-11^{-1}. This means that molality measures the amount of solute (in moles) per unit mass of solvent (in kilograms).

This unit is particularly useful because it does not depend on temperature or volume, unlike molarity, which can change with temperature since it is based on volume.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c), where the unit of molality is mole per kilogram, i.e., mol/kg.
