Correct answer: B

  1. Recall the definitions of each concentration term

    • Molality mmm: 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​

    • Molarity MMM: M=moles of solutevolume of solution in LM = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of solution in L}}M=volume of solution in Lmoles of solute​

    • Mole fraction of a component: xi=ni∑nix_i = \frac{n_i}{\sum n_i}xi​=∑ni​ni​​

    • Mass percentage: % by mass=mass of componenttotal mass of solution×100\%\,\text{by mass} = \frac{\text{mass of component}}{\text{total mass of solution}} \times 100%by mass=total mass of solutionmass of component​×100

  2. Check which quantity depends on temperature

    Temperature mainly affects volume due to thermal expansion or contraction.

    • Molality depends on mass of solvent, and mass does not change with temperature. So, molality is temperature independent.

    • Molarity depends on volume of solution, and volume does change with temperature. So, molarity changes with temperature.

    • Mole fraction depends only on number of moles, not volume. So, it is temperature independent.

    • Mass percentage depends on masses, not volume. So, it is temperature independent.

  3. Evaluate the options

    • A: Molality — Incorrect
    • B: Molarity — Correct
    • C: Mole fraction — Incorrect
    • D: Mass percentage — Incorrect
  4. Final answer

    The quantity which changes with temperature is: Molarity\boxed{\text{Molarity}}Molarity​
