    Answer:

    55.9 g KCl.

    Explanation:

    Hello there!

    In this case, according to the definition of molality for the 0.500-molar solution, we need to divide the moles of solute (potassium chloride) over the kilograms of solvent as shown below:

    m=\frac{mol}{kilograms}

    Thus, solving for the moles of solute, we obtain:

    mol=m*kilograms

    Since the density of water is 1 kg/L, we obtain the following moles:

    mol=0.500mol/kg*1.50kg\\\\mol=0.75mol

    Next, since the molar mass of KCl is 74.5513 g/mol, the mass would be:

    0.75mol*\frac{74.5513g}{1mol}\\\\55.9g \ KCl

    Regards!
