Molality = Moles of soluteKilograms of solvent

χ=3.89mol3.89mol+1000g18.01gmol1=0.067

Explanation:

And χ, mole fraction = Moles of soluteMoles of solute and moles of solvent

We have a 3.89 molal solution (at least I think we do); i.e. molality = 3.89molkg1.

And thus χ=3.89mol3.89mol+1000g18.01gmol1=0.067
