Question 15 (1 point) Antifreeze is an aqueous solution of propylene glycol. What is the mole fraction of propylene glycol (C3H6(OH)2 MM = 76.09) in a 54.8% by mass antifreeze solution? (+6 points for submitted work) = Your Answer: Answer​

Respuesta :

The mole fraction of propylene glycol is  0.22.

What is mole fraction?

This is the ratio of the number of moles of a substance to the total number of moles present.

The total mass of solute and solvent = 100 g

Mass of solute = 54.8 g

Mass of solvent = 100 g - 54.8 g = 45.2 g

Number of moles of water = 45.2 g/18 g/mol = 2.5 moles

Number of moles of solute = 54.8 g/76 g/mol = 0.72 moles

Mole fraction of propylene glycol = 0.72 moles/0.72 moles + 2.5 moles

= 0.22.
