Question 1 of 3

A powder contains 0.5437 moles of Sucrose and 0.7821 moles of Dextrose. What is the mole fraction of Dextrose - to 3 decimal places?

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.

The mole fraction of Dextrose is 0.590.
Mole Fraction of A =              Number of Moles of A              
Total Number of Moles of All Components
Mole Fraction of Dextrose =         0.7821        
0.7821 + 0.5437
Mole Fraction of Dextrose = 0.5899 = 0.590 to 3 dec pl

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 2 of 3

450.5 grams of water (RMM 18.02) are associated with 10 grams of Sodium Hydroxide (RMM 40.0). What is the mole fraction of Sodium Hydroxide to 3 decimal places?

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
The mole fraction of Sodium Hydroxide is 0.010.

Moles of Water = Mass / RMM = 450.5 / 18.02 = 25 moles
Moles of NaOH = Mass / RMM = 10 / 40.0 = 0.25 moles

Mole Fraction of A =           Number of Moles of A           
Total Number of Moles of All Components
Mole Fraction of NaOH =         0.25        
0.25 + 25
Mole Fraction of NaOH = 0.0099 = 0.010 to 3 dec pl

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 3 of 3

150 ml of water (RMM 18.02, density 1g/ml) are associated with 2.925 grams of Sodium Chloride (RMM 58.5). What is the mole fraction of WATER in the system - to 3 decimal places?

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
The mole fraction of water is 0.994.

Mass of water = 150 x density = 150 x 1 = 150 grams
Moles of Water = Mass / RMM = 150 / 18.02 = 8.32408 moles
Moles of NaCl = Mass / RMM = 2.925 / 58.5 = 0.05 moles

Mole Fraction of A =           Number of Moles of A           
Total Number of Moles of All Components
Mole Fraction of Dextrose =         8.32408        
8.32408 + 0.05
Mole Fraction of Water = 0.9940 = 0.994 to 3 dec pl

No, that is not the correct answer.
