Recall the definition of molality: it is the number of moles of solute divided by the mass of the solvent in kilograms.
Write the formula for molality as \(\text{molality} = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{kilograms of solvent}}\).
Identify the units for moles of solute, which is 'mol', and for the mass of solvent, which is 'kg'.
Combine these units to express molality units as \(\frac{\text{mol}}{\text{kg}}\).
Compare this with the given options to select the one that matches \(\frac{\text{mol}}{\text{kg}}\) as the correct unit for molality.
