1)
Molecular of Mn(NO3)2
= 55 + (14 + 16*3)*2
= 179 g

Therefore, the number of molecules of Mn(NO3)2 = 14.0/179

Hence, molality is the following:
m = number of molecules of Mn(NO3)2 / mass of water in kg
=> molality = (14.0/179)/0.25 = 0.312849 == 0.31 m --Answer

2)
60 ml of 2.79M NaOH
= 60*2.79/1000 molecules of NaOH
= 0.1674 molecules of NaOH

volume = 0.26 L

Therefore, molarity = 0.1674 molecules of NaOH/0.26 L = 0.644 M --Answer
