Correct answer: C

  1. Recall the definitions of the concentration terms

    • Molality (m)(m)(m): m=moles of solutemass of solvent in kgm = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}m=mass of solvent in kgmoles of solute​
    • Weight fraction of solute: weight fraction=mass of solutemass of solution\text{weight fraction} = \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{mass of solution}}weight fraction=mass of solutionmass of solute​
    • Molarity (M)(M)(M): M=moles of solutevolume of solution in litreM = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of solution in litre}}M=volume of solution in litremoles of solute​
    • Mole fraction of solute: x=moles of a componenttotal moles in solutionx = \frac{\text{moles of a component}}{\text{total moles in solution}}x=total moles in solutionmoles of a component​
  2. Check which quantities depend on temperature

    Temperature affects volume significantly due to thermal expansion, but it does not change the mass or number of moles of solute/solvent in an ordinary closed solution.

    • Molality depends on moles of solute and mass of solvent. Neither changes with temperature. ⇒Molality does not change\Rightarrow \text{Molality does not change}⇒Molality does not change

    • Weight fraction depends on masses. Mass does not change with temperature. ⇒Weight fraction does not change\Rightarrow \text{Weight fraction does not change}⇒Weight fraction does not change

    • Molarity depends on volume of solution. Since volume changes with temperature, ⇒Molarity changes with temperature\Rightarrow \text{Molarity changes with temperature}⇒Molarity changes with temperature

    • Mole fraction depends on moles. Number of moles does not change with temperature. ⇒Mole fraction does not change\Rightarrow \text{Mole fraction does not change}⇒Mole fraction does not change

  3. Evaluate options

    • A: molality — No
    • B: weight fraction of solute — No
    • C: molarity — Yes
    • D: mole fraction — No
  4. Final answer

    The quantity that changes with increase of temperature is: C: molarity\boxed{\text{C: molarity}}C: molarity​

  5. Comparison with stored correct answer

    Stored correct answer: C

    My derived answer: C

    Hence, they agree.
