calculate the mole fraction ethylene glycol {C2H6O2} and water in a solution containing 20% of C2H6O2 by mass
Asked by Vivek Chandravanshi | 26 Oct, 2014, 01:33: PM
Expert Answer
20% of C2H6O2 by mass is present.
That means solution has 20 g of ethylene glycol and 80 g of water.
Now,
Molar mass of C2H6O2 = 12 x 2 + 1 x 6 + 2 x 16 = 62 g mol-1 .
Moles of C2H6O2 = 20 / 62 = 0.322 moles
Moles of water = 80 / 18 = 4.444 moles
Mole fraction of ethylene glycol = 0.322 / 0.322 + 4.444 = 0.068
Mole fraction of water = 1 - 0.068 = 0.932
