The mole fraction is calculated using the formula:

mole fraction of component A = # of moles of component A / # of total moles of the solution.

A) number of moles of ethanol

To calculate the number of moles of ethanol, you need its density, which will permit you to determine the mass of the 10.00 ml, and then convert into moles using the molar mass of ethanol.

The normal density of ethanol is 0.789 g/ml

density = mass / volume => mass = density  * volume = 0.789 g/ml * 10.00 ml = 7.890 g

Molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

number of moles = mass / molar mass = 7.890g / 46.07 g/mol = 0.1713 mol

B) number of moles of water

density of water = 1.00 g/mol

mass of water = density * volume = 1.00 g/mol * 2.00 ml = 2.00 g

number of moles of water = mass / molar mass = 2.00 g / 18.0 g/mol = 0.111  mol

C) mole fraction

mole fraction of ethanol = number of moles of ethanol / number of moles of solution

number of moles of ethanol = 0.1713 / (0.1713 + 0.111) = 0.1713 / 0.2824 = 0.607

Answer: 0.607

The volume of the final solution may  be calculated by adding the volume of the two components. This is 10.00 ml of ethanol + 2.00 ml of water makes 12.00 ml of solution.

It is not clear what the second question is meant for. Some context is missing. If you know density and you know maqss (or can calculate the mass from other data) you do not need to measure the volume.

What is the hybridization of sb in the molecule sbcl52–? antimony (sb) can accept up to twelve electrons?
Setler79 [48]

The valence electron configuration for antimony (Sb) is:

Sb = 5s²5p³5d⁰

In SbCl₅²⁻, antimony has a -2 charge i.e. it has 2 additional electrons

Sb²⁻ = 5s²5p⁵5d⁰

Following a two electron transition from p→d orbital we have:

Sb²⁻ = 5s²5p³5d²

There is a total of 5 unpaired electrons (3 in the p and 2 in the d) which can form five bonds with the 5 Cl atoms.

Thus the hybridisation of Sb in SbCl₅²⁻ is sp³d²
