<u>Answer:</u> The molality of the solution is 0.11 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mole fraction of methanol = 0.135

This means that 0.135 moles of methanol is present in 1 mole of a solution

Moles of ethanol = 1 - 0.135 = 0.865 moles

To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of ethanol = 0.865 moles

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mol

0.865mol=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{46g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of ethanol}=(0.865mol\times 46g/mol}=39.79g

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (methanol) = 0.135 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (methanol) = 32 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (ethanol) = 39.79 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of methanol}=\frac{0.135\times 1000}{32\times 39.79}\\\\\text{Molality of methanol}=0.106m\approx 0.11m

Hence, the molality of the solution is 0.11 m

How do anion formation and valence electrons relate?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A cation is formed when a metal ion loses a valence electron while an anion is formed when a non-metal gains a valence electron. They both achieve a more stable electronic configuration through this exchange.
