Calculate the mole fraction of each component in a solution with 6.87 g of sodium chloride (nacl) dissolved in 65.2 g of water. work must be shown in order to earn credit.

mole fraction of NaCl = 0.03145.

mole fraction of water = 0.9686.

Explanation:

mole fraction of NaCl = (no. of moles of NaCl) / (total no. of moles).

no. of moles of NaCl = mass/molar mass = (6.87 g)/(58.44 g/mol) = 0.1176 mol.

no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass = (65.2 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 3.622 mol.

∴ mole fraction of NaCl = (no. of moles of NaCl) / (total no. of moles) = (0.1176 mol)/(0.1176 mol + 3.622 mol) = 0.03145.

∵ mole fraction of NaCl + mole fraction of water = 1.0.

∴ mole fraction of water = 1.0 - mole fraction of NaCl = 1.0 - 0.03145 = 0.9686.

answer: atomic mass was originally used to arrange elements on the periodic table, but is no longer used to organize the modern version.

explanation:

originally atomic mass was used to arrange elements on the periodic table from left to right in a row. each column then shows similar properties of elements of a group.

in modern periodic table, the atoms are arranged in increasing atomic number. as atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom which is unique for every atom.
