What is the mole fraction of acetic acid in a solution containing 2 moles of vinegar and 3 moles of water? A. 2 B. 3 C. 0.4 D. 0

9966 [12]

Answer:

C. 0.4.

Explanation:

∵ mole fraction of acetic acid (X acetic acid) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(total no. of moles) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(no. of moles of acetic acid + no. of moles of water).

- no. of moles of acetic acid = 2, no. of moles of water = 3.

- Total no. of moles = no. of moles of acetic acid + no. of moles of water = 2 + 3 = 5.

∴ mole fraction of acetic acid (X acetic acid) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(total no. of moles) = (2)/(5) = 0.4.
