Answer:

a) 1,74 molal

b) 37,2 %

c) 0,03

Explanation:

We are going to define sucrose as solute, water as solvent and the mix of both, the solution.

Let´s start with the data:

$Molarity = M = \frac{1,22 mol solute}{lts solution}$

We can assume as a calculus base, 1 liter of solution. So, in 1 liter of solution we have 1,22 moles of solute:

$1 lts solution * \frac{1,22 moles solute}{lts solution}=1,22 moles solute$

Knowing that the molality (m) is defined as mol of solute/kgs solvent, we have to calculate the mass of solvent on the solution. Remember our calculus base (1 lts of solution). In 1 lts of solution we have 1120 grams of solution.

$1 lts solution * \frac{1,12 grs solution}{mL solution}*\frac{1000 mL solution}{1 lts solution} = 1120 grs of solution$

With the molecular weight of solute (<em>Sum of: for carbon = 12*12=144; for hydrogen = 1*22=22 and for oxygen = 16*11=176. Final result = 342 grs per mol</em>), we can obtain the mass of solute:

$1,22 mol solute*\frac{342 grs solute}{1 mol solute} = 417,24 grs solute$

Now, the mass of solvent is: mass solvent = mass of solution - mass of solute. So, we have: 1120 - 417,24 = 702,76 grs of solvent = 0,70276 Kgs of solvent

$molality = m = \frac{1,22 mol solute}{0,70276 kgs solvent}= 1,74 molal$

For b) question we have that the mass percent of solute is hte ratio between the mass of solute and the mass of solution. So,

$%(w/w) = \frac{417,24 grs solute}{1120 grs solution} = 37,2%$

For c) question we have that the mole fraction of solute is the ratio between moles of solute and moles of solution. Let's calculate the moles of solution as follows: <em>Moles solution = moles solute + moles solvent.</em> First we have that the moles of solvent are (remember that the molecular weight of water for this calculus is 18 grs per mol):

$702,76 grs solvent*\frac{1 mol solvent}{18 grs solvent} = 39,04 moles solvent$
