Molarity of h2so4 is 0.8 m and its density is 1.06 g cmââ¬â3. what will be the concentration of the solution in terms of molality (m) and mole fraction (x)
Answers
Answer:
Molality of the solution = 0.815 moles and mole fraction = 0.985
Explanation:
We are given that the molarity of is 0.8. This means that 0.8 moles of H2SO4 are present in 1000 ml of the solution. So, the number of moles of solute=0.8.
The mass of the solution=1000ml
Density of the solution=1.06 gm (given)
Also Density= Mass of solution ÷ Volume of the solution
1.06= Mass of solution ÷ 1000
So, we get the mass of solution= 1060 gm
The molar weight of = 98 g/mol
Mass of 0.8 mol of = 0.8mol×98g/mol =78.4gm
So, now we have the total mass of the solution= 1060 gm and the mass of solute= 78.4 gm
So, the mass of solvent= (1060-78.4)gm= 981.6 gm
So, the mass of water= 981.6gm
The molar weight of water= 18g/mol
We can now calculate the moles of water using the formula:
Number of moles of water= Mass of water ÷ Molar weight of water
=981.6gm ÷ 18g/mol= 54.53 mol
The molality of the solution= (Mass of solute÷ Mass of solvent) ×1000
=(0.8÷981.6×1000=0.815 moles
The mole fraction of = 0.8/(0.8+54.53)= 0.0145
The moles fraction of water= 54.53(0.8+54.53)=0.985
