34.2 g of sugar was dissolved in water to produce 214.2 g of sugar syrup. Calculate molality and mole fraction of sugar in the syrup. Given C = 12 and O = 16 |
|
Answer» Answer: 1). MOLE fraction of sugar in syrup = 1/101 2). Molality of sugar in syrup = 0.5 mol/ kg >> NOTE : MOLARITY CAN'T BE CALCULATED WITH GIVEN MASS, IT IS ONLY CALCULATED WITH VOLUME, BUT MOLALITY CAN BE CALCULATED. Explanation: 1). Mole fraction : >>no. of moles of sugar(SOLUTE)/total moles of solution(solution) (1). sugar = C12H22011 Weight of sugar = 34.2g (given) Molar mass of sugar = 342 g/mol Vol 82 >> mole of sugar = 34.2/342 = 1/10 mole (II). Water = H2O Weight of water = 214.2-34.2=180 g Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol >> mole of water = 180/18 = 10 mole Now, >> Mole fraction = (1/10)/(101/10) = 1/10 × 10/101 [Answer] = 1/101 [ Mole fraction is a unit less quantity] Vol 82 V 2). Molality >> If mass is given in gram then, Molality (weight of solute × 1000)/ = (Molar mass of solute × weight of solvent) Hence, weight of solute (Sugar) = 34.2 g (Given) weight of solvent (water) = 180 g (Given) Molar mass of solute = = 342 g » (34.2 x 1000)/(342 × 180) = 34200/61560 = 0.5 mole/Kg [Answer] |
