**Title: Calculating Mole Fraction and Molality**

**Instruction**

What is the mole fraction, \( X \), of solute and the molality, \( m \), for an aqueous solution that is 20.0% NaOH by mass?

**Input Fields:**
- \( m = \) [Text Box]
- \( X = \) [Text Box]

**Explanation:**
To solve for the mole fraction and molality:
1. Determine the mass of NaOH (solute).
2. Determine the mass of water (solvent).
3. Convert masses to moles.
4. Use the moles to calculate the mole fraction (moles of solute divided by total moles).
5. Calculate molality using moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

**Note for Students:** Ensure you show all your work for full credit. Use the molar mass of NaOH and water in calculations.
