Answer:

Mole fraction of Nacl is 0.173

Explanation:

we know that

P_{sol}=\chi_{solvent}P^0_{solvent}

where,

P sol  - the vapor pressure of the solution

χ  solvent - the mole fraction of the solvent

P ∘ solvent  - the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

This means that in order to be able to calculate the mole fraction of sodium chloride, you need to know what the vapor pressure of pure water is at  

25 ° C  You can use an online calculator to find that the vapor pressure of pure water at  25 C  is equal to about  23.8 torr .

\chi_{water}= \frac{P{sol}}{P^0{water}}

\chi_{water}= \frac{19.6}{23.8}

=0.827

Also we know that

\chi_{water}+\chi_{Nacl}= 1

This means that the mole fraction of sodium chloride is

χ_{Nacl}= 1-Χ_{water}

= 1-0.827 =0.173

Which pair of atoms would form a covalent bond ?
Liula [17]
I think O and Cl will form covalent bonds since they are both non-metals and don't have a large enough difference in electronegativities to create an ionic bond.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
