Question:

What will be the effect of increasing the temperature of an aqueous solution?

Options:

Decrease in molarity

Decrease in molality

Decrease in mole fraction

Decrease in w/w %

Correct Answer:

Decrease in molarity

Explanation:

Mass %, ppm, mole fraction and molality are independent of temperature, whereas molarity is a function of temperature. This is because volume depends on temperature and the mass does not.
