QUESTION:

Problem 54P

A solution contains 0.100 mol of NaCl dissolved in 8.60 mol of water, (a) What is the mole fraction of NaCl? (b) The mass percent? (c) The molality?

ANSWER:

Solution 54P:

Here, we are going to calculate the concentration of the solution in terms of concentration unit.

Step 1: (a)

Here, we have to calculate the mole fraction of NaCl

We know that,

Mole fraction = ----(1)

Given that,

Mole of NaCl (solute) =0.1 mol

Mole of water (solvent) = 8.60 mol

Therefore,

The mole fraction of NaCl=

=0.0115

Thus, the mole fraction of NaCl is 0.0115.
