Sorry I meant molality

molality = moles solute/Kg Solvent
It is a concentration term used mainly for systems that go through a change in temperature and need a constant value for concentration. Concentrations in terms of Molarity would change with changes in temperature due to expansion or contraction of the solution. Anyways...
moles of solute in a 60%EG(aq) soln = (60-g/62-g/mol)/dL (deciliter = 1/10th Liter = 100-ml) Soln = 0.968-mol/dL
Kg Solvent in a 60%EG(aq) soln = (100-60)gms HOH/dL Soln = 40-gms HOH/dL Soln = (40/1000)-Kg HOH/dL soln = 0.04-Kg/dL soln.
molality(m) = moles EG/Kg HOH
= (0.968 mol/dL/0.04 Kg/dL)
= 24.2 molal solution of Ethylene Glycol
