which is temp dependent: molality or malarity

also, how does a small specific heat, c, will indeed yield a large delta T

delta H = mc delta T

delta H = mc delta T

For the first question: molarity is temperature dependent and molality is not...

Second question: its just like pv=nrt where p and v are inveresely related, the same goes here...a small specific heat (c) will give you a large T to counter balance the affect...

Malarity will be tem dependent b/c only molarity is dealing with Volume,molality in the other hand is mole/kg and so it is not involved with volume so tem has no affect on it.
For specific heat the reason is that when a compound is impure means has more ion in it ,it will boil faster hence,will have low specific heat and will boil in shorter time and that will cause a large delta T.ex: an impure substance might boil from 10c to 100c and will have delta T of 90c very fast whereas for example water which is pure substance and will take longer time to boil and has large specific heat and so will have smaller delta T.
 
Molality is independent of temperature. Take a look at the freezing/boiling point depression/elevation equations. In the second question, like the others said, look at the q=(m)(c)(delta T) equation. Pending that (q) and (m) remains the same......if you decrease (c)....then delta T will have to increase to suffice. Hope that helps. man.
