PolarNik [594]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>0.3."

Here it is how to solve.
M</span><span>olecular mass of Ar = 40
</span><span>Molecular mass of Ne = 20
</span><span>Number of moles of Ar = 9.59/40 = 0.239
</span><span>Number of moles of Ne = 11.12/20= 0.556
</span><span>Mole fraction of argon = 0.239/ ( 0.239 + 0.556) = 0.3</span><span>
