If the mole fraction of NaCl in an
aqueous solution is 0.0927, what is
the weight/weight % (percent by
mass) of NaCl.
Molar Mass
Naci: 58.44 g/mol
H2O: 18.016 g/mol

Answer:

24.9%

Explanation:

According to this question, mole fraction of NaCl in an aqueous solution is 0.0927. This means that the mole percent of NaCl in the solution is:

0.0927 × 100 = 9.27%

Let's assume that the solution contains water (solvent) + NaCl (solute), hence, the mole fraction of water will be;

100% - 9.27% = 90.73%

THEREFORE, it can be said that, NaCl contains 0.0927moles while H2O contains 9.073moles

N.B: mole = mass/molar mass

Given the Molar Mass

NaCl: 58.44 g/mol

H2O: 18.016 g/mol

For NaCl;

0.0927 = mass/58.44

mass = 0.0927 × 58.44

5.42g

For H2O;

9.073 = mass/18.016

mass = 9.073 × 18.016

= 16.35g

Total mass of solution = 16.35g + 5.42g = 21.77g

Mass percent of NaCl = mass of NaCl/total mass × 100

% mass of NaCl = 5.42g/21.77g × 100

= 0.249 × 100

= 24.9%

Answer:

24.9
