46 gms of ethyl alcohol is dissolved in 18 gms of water. Calculate the mole fraction of ethyl alcohol, (at. wt of C = 12, O = 16, H = 1) |
Answer» Molecular mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g Mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g no. of moles of ethyl alcohol in sol. = \(\frac{46 g}{46 g}\) = 1 Molecular mass of H2O = 18 g no. of moles of H2O in solution = \(\frac{18g}{18g}\) = 1 total no. of moles in solution = 1 + 1 = 2 Mole fraction of ethyl alcohol = \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 0.5 |
