The osmolality in this concentration range fits the following quadratic polynom: Osmolality=0.117*m^2 + 1.003*m.
The molality of betaine in water can be estimated from the refractive index at 25 degrees Celsius according to the following term:
[Betaine], mol/kg = 496.892*RI^2 - 1266.500*RI + 805.356
