<u>Answer:</u> The mole fraction of barium chloride in the solution is 0.024
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Molarity of barium chloride solution = 1.30 M
This means that 1.30 moles of barium chloride is present in 1 L or 1000 mL of solution.
- To calculate the mass of solution, we use the equation:
Density of solution = 1.230 g/mL
Volume of solution = 1000 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:
- To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
.....(1)
Moles of barium chloride = 1.30 moles
Molar mass of barium chloride = 208 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
Mass of water = Mass of solution - Mass of barium chloride
Mass of water = 1230 - 270.4 = 959.6 g
<u>Calculating the moles of water:</u>
Given mass of water = 959.6 g
Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
Mole fraction of a substance is given by:
- <u>For barium chloride:</u>
Hence, the mole fraction of barium chloride in the solution is 0.024
