Answer:

this is from another brainliest answers.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds need to be molten or in solution for electrolysis to work. This is because the charged particles that make them up (ions) need to be free to move to the electrodes.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 23.7 g of cacl2 in 375 g of water. the density of the resulting solution is 1.05 g/ml. the
alekssr [168]
<span>The density of the solution =1.05 g/ml.
</span><span>The total mass of the resulting solution is = 398.7 g (CaCl2 + water)
</span>
Find moles of CaCl2 and water.
Molar mass of CaCl2 = 110 (approx.)

Moles of CaCl2 = 23.7 / 110  = 0.22
so, moles of Cl- ion = 2 x 0.22 = 0.44  (because each molecule of CaCl2 will give two Cl- ions)
Moles of water = 375 / 18 = 20.83

Now, Mole fraction of CaCl2 =  (moles of CaCl2) / (total moles)

total moles = moles of Cl- ions + moles of Ca2+ ions + moles of water

                  = 0.44 + 0.22 + 20.83

=21.49


So, mole fraction = 0.44 / (21.49) = 0.02

Guess what !!! density is not used. No need
