Question

In a 66.0-g aqueous solution of methanol, CH4O, the mole fraction of methanol is 0.290. What is the mass of each component? g

Answer 1

Answer:

23.84g CH30H

32.81g H2O

Explanation:

We will be using the definition of mole fraction to determine the relationship between the number of moles of methanol,

CH3OH , and the number of moles of water.

But mole fraction gives the ratio between the number of moles of a component i of a solution to the total number of moles present in that solution.
