The mole fraction of solute in a 3.87 m aqueous solution is 0.0697
<h3>
calculation</h3>
molality = moles of the solute/Kg of the solvent
3.87 m dissolve in 1 Kg of water= 1000g
find the moles of water= mass/molar mass
that is 1000 g/ 18 g/mol= 55.56 moles
mole of solute = 3.87 moles
mole fraction is = moles of solute/moles of solvent
that is 3.87/ 55.56 = 0.0697
To take the percent by mass of this element, we use the
formula:
% mass = (mass of element / mass of ore) * 100%
% mass = (47.5 g / (660 kg * 1000 g / kg)) * 100*
<span>% mass = 7.20 x 10^-3 %</span>
To convert 78.1 g of water at 0° C to Ice at -57.1°C; we can do it in steps;
1. Water at 0°C to ice at 0°C
The heat of fusion of ice is 334 J/g;
Heat = 78.1 × 334 = 26085.4 Joules
2. Ice at 0°C to -57.1°C
Specific heat of ice is 2.108 J/g
Heat = 78.1 × 2.108 J/g = 164.6348 Joules
Thus the total heat energy released will be; 26085.4 + 164.6348
= 26250.0348 J or 26.250 kJ
